Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4075:
-------------------------------------------
bq. can we get a backport of it to 0.8.x, particularly 0.8.1?
No, this isn't really back-portable since it was a total rewrite of the sstable
deletion code, from being based on PhantomReferences triggered by GC, to manual
reference counting.
bq. just tested a full gc on both 0.8.10 and 0.8.1 after waiting rpc_timeout
seconds and the sstables that were marked as compacted through the drop command
did clear.
Good, that's what we'd expect then.

> Tested in 0.8.10, reported in 0.8.1.
> Dropped keyspaces and column families have their sstables marked as
