Point out the risk of WriteOne #49

Closed patriknw closed 9 years ago

JVM crash before the updated value was sent out with gossip means that the update is "lost".

Use case for WriteOne is when you need low latency and are it's acceptable to loose updates if JVM crashes before the data has been spread to other nodes. For example: web page counter
