Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-7366:
---------------------------------------------
The one downside I see might be that, unless I'm wrong, this will roughly
double the size of the counters for all existing ones and I wonder if the code
saved is worth that disagreement for our users.
I'm slightly ambivalent here on what is the best choice. On the one side if we
ever do this, better do it sooner than later. On the other side, we've already
made many chances to counters, so keeping a small amount of code to save some
trouble to upgrades feels nicer.
Anyway, not feeling extremely strongly here though slightly leaning towards
keeping things as they are to be nice to upgraders if I'd have to pick. But
with that caveat, +1 on the patch technically speaking.
> Use node's hostId instead of generating counterId-s
