If you exceel 50% then you could be in trouble for compaction. No immediate
harm though, just that compaction will start failing and eventually, you
will see read latencies go high.

But what if the sstable file size of the largest tire is too large to
compact (e.g. no spare disk room to merge two huge sstables).
Not to mention that huge file is likely to bring troubles for some
file systems, and it's hard to backup them.

No, sstables keep compacting when they meet criteria. Look for compaction sub 
properties

is there an upper limit of the size tier of stcs?

2019-01-13 Thread Jinhua Luo
is there a largest tier where the sstables stop merging anymore? if so,
then does it mean some tombstones at that last tier would not be removed?
if not, then it's hard to imagine to compact sstables in huge size, like
10gb; after all, the total size of sstables would definitelly grow, so a
huge sstable would be very likely possible, especially when the range of
the keys is wide.
