[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-10907) Nodetool snapshot should provide an option to skip flushing

["Paulo Motta (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10907?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15066428#comment-15066428 ] 

Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-10907:
-----------------------------------------

The option can be called {{--skip-flush}}. No touching on VerbHandler is necessary since this is internal-only, only addition of new methods to the {{StorageService}} MBean which is used by nodetool. Please provide patch for trunk.

> For some practical scenarios, it doesn't matter if the data is flushed to disk before taking a snapshot. However, it's better to save some flushing time to make snapshot process quick.
> As such, it will be a good idea to provide this option to snapshot command. The wiring from nodetool to MBean to VerbHandler should be easy. 
> I can provide a patch if this makes sense.
