Jon Hermes commented on CASSANDRA-1811: --------------------------------------- bq. An alternative would be to extend forceclean in jmx to allow you to specify both the Keyspace and a CF, so that you could manually do specific CFs. This is resolved in CASSANDRA-1812, but there's value in both. > Cleanup smallest CFs first > -------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-1811 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1811 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Paul Querna > Assignee: Jon Hermes > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.6.9 > > > When running a cleanup, it would be an advantage to anti-compact the smallest > SSTables first, so that free disk space is gradually increased, so that > larger sstables later on are more likely to successfully anti-compact. > In 0.6, currently Table.forceCleanup() just iterates the list of CFs in > whatever order they come from tableMetadata.getColumnFamilies, which is just > a keySet(). > The code should be changed to sort the CFs, smallest first. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
