-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all,
thanks for your comments, and I'm glad that you found my post helpful.

So I guess it's ok to stick with the non-incremental CMS for now. - -M On 08/27/2010 09:12 AM, Peter Schuller wrote: >> Whether or not this is likely to happen with Cassandra I don't know.
