> The way we send out data that does not match over WAN can be improved. 
> Example: Say there are four nodes(A,B,C,D) which are replica of a range we are repairing. A, B is in DC1 and C,D is in DC2. If A does not have the data which other replicas have, then we will have following streams
> 1) A to B and back
> 2) A to C and back(Goes over WAN)
> 3) A to D and back(Goes over WAN)
> One of the ways of doing it to reduce WAN traffic is this.
> 1) Repair A and B only with each other and C and D with each other starting at same time t. 
> 2) Once these repairs have finished, A,B and C,D are in sync with respect to time t. 
> 3) Now run a repair between A and C, the streams which are exchanged as a result of the diff will also be streamed to B and D via A and C(C and D behaves like a proxy to the streams).
> For a replication of DC1:2,DC2:2, the WAN traffic will get reduced by 50% and even more for higher replication factors.
