Andrew Whang commented on CASSANDRA-13967:
------------------------------------------

nodetool truncatehints is one way to remove these stale hints, but it would be 
nice for the system to automatically detect and remove stale hints (for target 
hosts no longer part of the ring).

> Hints for hosts no longer part of the ring remain in the hints directory

> I find the hints directory grows over time as hosts are decommissioned 
> because the hints for the old hosts remain undelivered/unremoved.
