Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-3550:
---------------------------------------------

bq. Of course, if we add a JMX call, we want to make sure we have a few tests 
that actually test the 'real life' failure detector behavior.

Right.

bq. I'm afraid that having a phi threshold too low could result in test 
flickering in some case

I don't think this will be a problem in practice, phi is always under 1.0 for 
me in a healthy network.  I'll attach a patch shortly though and we can test.

> Currently we clamp the phi threshold between 5 and 16.  For distributed 
> testing purposes, 5 slows things down.  Instead let's allow values down to 1, 
> but add a warning for anything less than 5.
