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
