> There have been several issues with multithreaded_compaction and it's generally discouraged for use, even on SSD based systems.  It seems like it would be a good idea to remove it completely from the cassandra.yaml but leave it as a setting for now.  That way people can manually add it, but unsuspecting people who don't know about the sharp edges won't enable it on their SSD based systems.
> An alternative to removing it from the cassandra.yaml is to add more warnings to the description.
