Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-8829:
-------------------------------------
The new assertion is probably unsafe, as inviting as it might appear. It looks
to me like SSTableLoader can release references without the file being
compacted, as can SSTableReader.validate() (since my recent fix for a memory
leak)
> Add extra checks to catch SSTable ref counting bugs

> There have been some bad affects from ref counting bugs (see e.g.
> CASSANDRA-7704). We should add extra checks so we can more easily diagnose
> any future problems and avoid some of the side effects.
