> A streamOutSession acquire a reference on the sstable it will stream and 
> release them as soon as each sstable has been fully streamed. However, since 
> a stream session has currently no means to know when it failed, we'll keep 
> references indefinitely (meaning until next restart) if their is a failure. 
> One way a stream session could very easily fail is if the remote end dies. We 
> must make sure we correctly release sstable references when that happens.
> Note that it won't be bulletproof, there is probably other means by which a 
> streaming could fail: a bug in the code throwing an exception, no space left 
> on the receiving end, etc... But those are unlikely enough that I propose to 
> care only for the case of a node dying for now and leave the bullet-proofing 
> to CASSANDRA-3112.
