Thanks Paul. Glad to know that you are speaking on the very subject soon. Even though you are on GCP, you are still tied with GossipingPropertyFileSnitch and not enjoying the GoogleCloudSnitch. If it is not too much to ask, other than hand stitching RACK and DC in cassandra-rackdc.properties are there any down sides of not using GoogleCloudSnitch in your case and EC2Snitch in my case?
