Jonathan Shook commented on CASSANDRA-8371:
-------------------------------------------

[~Bj0rn],
The phrase "ideal scheduling" was meant to describe the case in which each 
sstable is compacted exactly once per window. You describe some of the 
scenarios which make this more of an ideal than an actuality in your response 
above. I understand that the windows are anchored at fixed points using modulo 
against the timestamp. The rationale I used above actually depends on it as an 
assumption, otherwise you wouldn't be able to achieve ideal compaction 
scheduling of "once per interval".

I guess we need to be careful about the terms we use here. I'd favor "fixed 
intervals" and "coalescing of fixed intervals". I believe my rationale on 
compaction load still makes sense, unless someone has a counter-example or 
clarification.

> Running 2.0.11 and having switched a table to 
> [DTCS|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6602] we've seen that 
> disk IO and gc count increase, along with the number of reads happening in 
> the "compaction" hump of cfhistograms.
> Data, and generally performance, looks good, but compactions are always 
> happening, and pending compactions are building up.
> The schema for this is 
> {code}CREATE TABLE search (
>   loginid text,
>   searchid timeuuid,
>   description text,
>   searchkey text,
>   searchurl text,
>   PRIMARY KEY ((loginid), searchid)
> );{code}
> We're sitting on about 82G (per replica) across 6 nodes in 4 DCs.
> CQL executed against this keyspace, and traffic patterns, can be seen in 
> slides 7+8 of https://prezi.com/b9-aj6p2esft/
> Attached are sstables-per-read and read-latency graphs from cfhistograms, and 
> screenshots of our munin graphs as we have gone from STCS, to LCS (week ~44), 
> to DTCS (week ~46).
> These screenshots are also found in the prezi on slides 9-11.

> Can this be a consequence of occasional deleted rows, as is described under 
> (3) in the description of CASSANDRA-6602 ?
