Ian Soboroff commented on CASSANDRA-1161:
-----------------------------------------
Well, it can always create a new file, too, right?
What's the tradeoff between appending an existing file and creating a new one?
The future problem - a db file growing past the point where it can be
anticompacted - is currently hard to keep track of and hard to recover from.
Anyway, it was just a suggestion... if it doesn't make sense, mark it closed.

> Key: CASSANDRA-1161
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1161
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.6.2
> Reporter: Ian Soboroff
>
> Since anticompaction may require significant disk space, it would be nice to
> be able to specify a disk quota.
> A simple quota option supporting literal and percentage quantities would be
> nice, but I think a better approach would be an option to not allow a Data.db
> file to grow larger in size than the existing free space on the volume.
