Reducing tombstones impact in queue access patterns through rolling shards?

Hi,

I just came across this recipe by Netflix, that addresses the impact of tombstones in queue access patterns with a time based rolling shard to allow compaction to happen in one shard while the other is ‘busy’. (At least this is what understand from the intro)

https://github.com/Netflix/astyanax/wiki/Message-Queue

Has anyone adopted such a pattern and can share experience?

Jan
