Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1072:
-------------------------------------------
Is this an accurate summary of the current state of 1072 and CASSANDRA-1546?
1072-pro: tested in production. Supports counters in subcolumns.
1072-con: IP-based partitioning is prone to catastrophic data loss if node IPs
change (which is fairly common on an EC2/EBS deployment) or on
decommission-after-bootstrap-before-repair (which is fairly uncommon ime) or
possibly in other scenarios as well; changing 1072 to use UUIDs instead of IPs
to fix this would be a substantial undertaking. In the worst case, there is no
ConsistencyLevel guarantee higher than ONE even with repair-on-write.
1546-pro: ConsistencyLevel support is built in; support for optional "marker"
allows retry on failure as well. "LocalCounterColumn" approach is less scary
if there are bugs than relying on post-transfer "cleaning" of non-local data.
Supports node IP changes.
1546-con: essentially untested. Some known corner cases involving node
movement need to be addressed. Would require using a custom comparator to
emulate counters in subcolumns.

> Break out the increment counters out of CASSANDRA-580. Classes are shared
> between the two features but without the plain version vector code the
> changeset becomes smaller and more manageable.
