Further the question below, the same thing seems to happen with
ColumnFamily: If I make a ColumnFamily, and then don't wait long enough,
an attempt to query it can fail if the particular node that gets queried
does not know about it yet. Is there something smarter to do than just
try/except all such failures and sleep it off?
This is particularly cumbersome for writing tests that setup/teardown
keyspaces repeatedly.

When I create a keyspace with pycassa on a multi-node cluster, it takes some
time before all the nodes know about the keyspace.
So, if I do this:
sm = SystemManager(random.choice(server_list))
sm.create_keyspace(keyspace, SIMPLE_STRATEGY, {'replication_factor':
'1'})
sm.close()
and then immediately pick a different node, it often will raise
InvalidRequestException(why="Keyspace 'foo' does not exist")
Is there a better way to handle this than just avoiding immediately asking
other nodes for the keyspace?
