Hi Dominic,

Thanks so much for providing this information.  I was unaware of Cages and
this looks like it could be used effectively for certain things.

Aren't vector clocks available in 0.8 now? Or more accurately, increment
counters?

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1072

This would imply that an artificial delay is no longer necessary.  Or am I
missing something?

Regards,

Les
