stream_throughput_outbound_megabits_per_sec is the timeout per operation on the streaming socket. The docs recommend not to have it too low (because a timeout causes streaming to restart from the beginning). But the default 0 never times out. What's a reasonable value?
Does it stream an entire SSTable in one operation? I doubt it. How large is the object it streams in one operation? I'm tempted to put the timeout at 30 seconds or 1 minute. Is that too low? Some of our rebuilds hang for many hours and we figure we need a timeout. Thanks, Don
