There is a difference between Cassandra allowing inc/dec on values and actually *knowing* the resultant value at the time of the write. It's likely that inc/dec support will still feature blind writes if at all possible. The memcached protocol returns a resultant value from inc/dec. -- David Strauss | da...@fourkitchens.com Four Kitchens | http://fourkitchens.com | +1 512 454 6659 [office] | +1 512 870 8453 [direct]
