At least for our use case (reading slices from varyingly sized rows from 
10-100k composite columns with counters and hundreds of writes/second) LCS has 
a nice ~75% lower read latency than Size Tiered. And compactions don't stop the 
world anymore.  Repairs do easily trigger a few hundred compactions though, but 
it's not that bad.
