Edward Capriolo updated CASSANDRA-3640:
---------------------------------------

    Description: 
We can into an interesting situation. We added 2 nodes to our cluster. 
Strangely these nodes were performing worse then other nodes. They had more 
IOwait for example. The impact was not major but it was noticeable. Later I 
determined that these Cassandra node were not in our client's list of nodes and 
our clients do not auto discover. I confirmed that the hosts did not have any 
scores inside it's dynamic snitch.

It is counter intuitive that a node receiving less or no direct user requests 
would perform worse then others. I am not sure of the dynamic that caused this. 

I understand that DSnitch is supposed to have it's own view of the world, maybe 
it could share information with neighbours. Again this is more of a client 
configuration issue then a direct Cassandra issue, but I found it interesting.
