Blake Eggleston commented on CASSANDRA-6246:
--------------------------------------------

I just merged some commits into my CASSANDRA-6246 branch. This is the initial 
implementation of the epoch, instance gc, streaming/repair, read repair, and 
failure recovery logic. I also have a dtests fork that tests it here: 
https://github.com/bdeggleston/cassandra-dtest/tree/CASSANDRA-6246.

I still have some items I need to complete before submitting review, but 
nothing major (relative to this stuff). Mostly cleaning up and refining things.

> One reason we haven't optimized our Paxos implementation with Multi-paxos is 
> that Multi-paxos requires leader election and hence, a period of 
> unavailability when the leader dies.
> EPaxos is a Paxos variant that requires (1) less messages than multi-paxos, 
> (2) is particularly useful across multiple datacenters, and (3) allows any 
> node to act as coordinator: 
> http://sigops.org/sosp/sosp13/papers/p358-moraru.pdf
> However, there is substantial additional complexity involved if we choose to 
> implement it.
