Server A crashes for a few minutes, and Servers B-Z get remapped data,
and then Server A recovers and Servers B-Z aren't flushed, then there
exists the likelihood that you'll read bad data from Servers B-Z again
if Server A should fail.<br></blockquote></div><br>
What do you think about giving the remapped data on servers B-Z a low
expiration time? This will get them flushed rather quickly. Then stale
data will only be an issue if server A fails again within that short
time period.<br>
