Thanks Josh,

I understand about the session ID completely but the problem I have is that
the exact same client code worked, line for line, just fine in 1.4.4 and
it's acting up in 1.6.0. I also seem to remember the BatchWriter
automatically creating a new session when one expired without an exception
causing it to fail on the client.

I know we've made changes since 1.4.4 but I'd like to troubleshoot the
actual issue of the BatchWriter failing due to the thrift exception rather
than just catching the exception and trying mutations again. The other
issue is that I've already submitted a bunch of mutations to the batch
writer from different threads. Does that mean I need to be storing them off
twice? (once in the BatchWriter's cache and once in my own)

The BatchWriter in my ingester is constantly sending data and the tablet
servers have been given more than enough memory to be able to keep up.
There's no swap being used and the network isn't experiencing any errors.
