Chris Burroughs commented on CASSANDRA-2397:
--------------------------------------------

For what it's worth I *think* lazily replicated counters is what I want.

> The replicate on write setting breaks assumptions in various places in the codebase dealing with whether data will be replicated in a timely fashion. It's worthwhile to discuss whether we should go all-the-way on replicate-on-write, such that it is a fully supported feature, or whether we should remove it entirely.
> On one hand, ROW could be considered to be just another replication tunable like HH, RR and AES. On the other hand, a lazily replicating store is very rarely what you actually wanted.
> Open issues related to ROW are linked, but additionally, we'd need to:
>  * Make the setting have an effect for standard column families
>  * Change the default for ROW to enabled and properly warn of the effects
