Chris Burroughs commented on CASSANDRA-5051:
--------------------------------------------

/operating-a-cluster-hat

"Yo we added some more nodes why is performance not better yet" is a fairly 
common complaint I get.   That said of: (A) status quo; (B) auto-cleanup after 
X; (C) auto-cleanup all the time. I'd welcome the option for (B) and probably 
enable it on all current clusters, but I can't think of a cluster where I would 
prefer (C) over (A).  Even a small risk of dealing with a backup/restore 
situation is not worth it.

> Allow automatic cleanup after gc_grace

> When using vnodes, after adding a new node you have to run cleanup on all the 
> machines, because you don't know which are affected and chances are it was 
> most if not all of them.  As an alternative to this intensive process, we 
> could allow cleanup during compaction if the data is older than gc_grace (or 
> perhaps some other time period since people tend to use gc_grace hacks to get 
> rid of tombstones.)
