I run into trouble after a while if I delete rows, this happens in both 2.1.3

The problem is reproducible using the attached python program.
Once the problem is encountered, the table becomes unusable..
cqlsh:test1> select id from msg limit 1;
Request did not complete within rpc_timeout.
my guess is that due to previous delete attempts your table is filled with
tombstones, and this is why the read times out: it hits the tombstone limit.
Check your Cassandra node logs to see if they mention tombstones.
Ciao, Duncan.
So, questions are:
am I doing something wrong ?
is this expected behaviour ?
is there some way to fix the table and make it usable again once this has
happened ?
if this is a bug, what is the best way of reporting it ?
Many thanks
Joss
