Benedict Elliott Smith commented on CASSANDRA-15234:
----------------------------------------------------

Thanks [~e.dimitrova]

bq. If you decide at some point this work or part of it to be committed

It was a confusing disagreement, certainly.  I understood us to have agreed 
that - if wanted - we could commit the work that's been reviewed, excluding 
only the new config file (and the new config parameter name tests etc).  It's 
up to you of course.  I think there could be value in this, since it might make 
the config file change more manageable, but I'm personally neutral on 
sequencing.

I'm fairly certain the main body of this work should be utilised to support 
whatever our new config file layout is; whether we commit it first or all 
together is fine by me, and I'm happy to defer to others' preferences (most 
importantly yours, as the author)

> We have a bunch of inconsistent names and config patterns in the codebase, 
> both from the yams and JVM properties.  It would be nice to standardise the 
> naming (such as otc_ vs internode_) as well as the provision of values with 
> units - while maintaining perpetual backwards compatibility with the old 
> parameter names, of course.
> For temporal units, I would propose parsing strings with suffixes of:
> {{code}}
> u|micros(econds?)?
> ms|millis(econds?)?
> s(econds?)?
> m(inutes?)?
> h(ours?)?
> d(ays?)?
> mo(nths?)?
> {{code}}
> For rate units, I would propose parsing any of the standard {{B/s, KiB/s, 
> MiB/s, GiB/s, TiB/s}}.
> Perhaps for avoiding ambiguity we could not accept bauds {{bs, Mbps}} or 
> powers of 1000 such as {{KB/s}}, given these are regularly used for either 
> their old or new definition e.g. {{KiB/s}}, or we could support them and 
> simply log the value in bytes/s.
