Jared,
Is it possible to elaborate more on "meet me in the middle
settings/scenarios?", let me explain, let's say the quorum is configured
with low values, say, R=W=1 and N=3, doesn't that add more work to AAE
background process? Could there be ways to sacrifice some client
performance with let's say, in the middle kind of generic for most
scenario settings to have the client wait a bit longer (R=W=2 or similar
combinations) and AAE to work a bit less?
Just thoughts though, I leave to the experts the deep explanation of this.
HTH,
Guido.

it be switched off by default maybe?
Here is a description of AAE when it was released in Riak 1.3
http://basho.com/introducing-riak-1-3/ You can turn off AAE in your
config files if you want it off. With Riak (and distributed systems
in general) there are always tradeoffs for any feature. Riak more
than others tends to pick 'safety' for the default case. AAE protects
your data's integrity even when not being read for a long time. It is
a very important feature, but we understand it does not fit everyone's
needs, so we provide the option to turn it off.
Hope that helps,
Jared
