Description

Here is how I got the problem to happen:

1. Get this zipped data directory (about 33Mb):
scp cass@50.57.69.32:/home/cass/cassandra.zip ./ (password cass)
2. Unzip it in /var/lib/
3. clone the cassandra git repo
4. git checkout cassandra-1.1.1; ant jar;
5. bin/cassandra
6. Run cqlsh -3, then DESC COLUMNFAMILIES; Note the presence of Keyspace performance_tests
7. pkill -f cassandra; git checkout cassandra-1.1.5; ant realclean; ant jar;
8. bin/cassandra
9. Run cqlsh -3, then DESC COLUMNFAMILIES; Note that there is no performance_tests keyspace
