sankalp kohli commented on CASSANDRA-7344:
------------------------------------------
By getting the last accepted commit and seeing whether it is empty.
If it is not, then do a prepare and do like we do now.
I am not sure why prepare phase is necessary to find out whether there is
anything inflight/pending to be committed.
> Read at SERIAL can lead to unnecessary contention

> Key: CASSANDRA-7344
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7344
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: sankalp kohli
> Assignee: sankalp kohli
> Priority: Minor
>
> If two clients are doing a read at serial on the same row, it does a full
> prepare step to figure out whether there is any updates or cas in flight or
> uncompleted.
> This can cause contention between then leading to waste of time in retrying.
> One of the request will not get a promise and will need to sleep.
> Instead they can check whether there is anything to finish and if not
> continue.
> If there is something to be done, then they can do the full prepare.
