This is more efficient than sending the entire schema. > But the coordinator also announces the new schema version, so the other > nodes' reception of the new version races with processing the delta, and > usually seeing the new schema wins. So the other nodes also issue a pull to > the coordinator for the entire schema. > Thus, schema changes tend to become O(n) in the number of KS and CF present. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
