Write / read cost of *QUORUM

Hi,

my understanding is that

- for writes using any of the quorum CLs will not put more overall load 
on the cluster because writes will be sent to all nodes responsible for 
a partition anyhow. So quorum only increases response time of the 
coordinator, not cluster load.

Correct?

- for reads all quorum CLs will yield more requests sent by the 
coordinator to other nodes and hence *QUORUM reads definitely increase 
cluster load. (And of course response time of the coordinator, too).

Correct?

Hi,



yes, you are write. Actually write with QUORUM will cause to coordinator to wait for reply from other nodes, but I guess it's negligible.
