 is what was released according to the 2.1.0 tag in git vs what [~slebresne] 
said in the email thread regarding no changes after 
c6a2c65a75adea9a62896269da98dd036c8e57f3 which was 2.1.0-tentative
# ok, I'll try offheap_objects instead (or as well)
# I'm still a bit confused about visit/revisit (which are in the 2.1.0 tagged 
release)... I want to evenly spread the load across all my partitions 
(genernally using a new clustering key every time, though I want to put a 
practical limit on the size of the partitions, so I was hoping to let it wrap 
at 10M or so unique clustering key values)... so it ounds like i want a 
visits=fixed(1) and revisits=not quite sure

> In order to preserve atomicity, this code attempts to read, clone/update, 
> then CAS the state of the partition.
> Under heavy contention for updating a single partition this can cause some 
> fairly staggering memory growth (the more cores on your machine the worst it 
> gets).
> Whilst many usage patterns don't do highly concurrent updates to the same 
> partition, hinting today, does, and in this case wild (order(s) of magnitude 
> more than expected) memory allocation rates can be seen (especially when the 
> updates being hinted are small updates to different partitions which can 
> happen very fast on their own) - see CASSANDRA-7545
> It would be best to eliminate/reduce/limit the spinning memory allocation 
> whilst not slowing down the very common un-contended case.
