             Summary: Allow automatic cleanup after gc_grace
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5051
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5051
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Brandon Williams
             Fix For: 2.0


When using vnodes, after adding a new node you have to run cleanup on all the machines, because you don't know which are affected and chances are it was most if not all of them.  As an alternative to this intensive process, we could allow cleanup during compaction if the data is older than gc_grace (or perhaps some other time period since people tend to use gc_grace hacks to get rid of tombstones.)
