> When performing a compaction on two sstables that contain the same RangeTombstone with different timestamps, the tombstones are not merged in the new sstable.
> This has been tested using cassandra 2.1 with the following table:
> {code}
> CREATE TABLE test(
>   key text,
>   column text,
>   data text,
>   PRIMARY KEY(key, column)
> );
> {code}
> And then doing the following:
> {code}
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "1", "1"); // If the sstable only contains tombstones during compaction it seems that the sstable either gets removed or isn't created (but that could probably be a separate JIRA issue).
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "2", "2"); // The inserts are not actually needed, since the deletes create tombstones either way.
> DELETE FROM test WHERE key="1" AND column="2";
> nodetool flush
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "2", "2");
> DELETE FROM test WHERE key="1" AND column="2";
> nodetool flush
> nodetool compact
> {code}
> When checking with the SSTableExport tool two tombstones exists in the compacted sstable. This can be repeated, resulting in more and more tombstones.
