Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-8773:
-----------------------------------------

(Apologies for not reading your comments carefully.)

Alright - the code itself is fine IMO. But I'm struggling with the "concept" 
that the data must be fully populated before _validate_ can do its work. Maybe 
I didn't get it right, but that makes validation a feature with very limited 
use. I mean, we are writing "random" data and validate "random" data - that can 
usually never succeed with _exact_ validation.

We would need something that checks result sets against the stress profile 
definition - something that checks whether (for example) {{population: 
gaussian(1..1000)}} matches the data being read with a certain probability 
(e.g. 90%). Feels heavy...

I assume that's what you mean with ??Ultimately we should support arbitrary 
value provision, including present or not-present values, and all possible 
inclusive/exclusive combinations. But this should suffice to stretch the system 
more than is currently the case.??
