---------------------------------------
Also confirming that with 2.1.7 see pending compactions spike to tens of
thousands from time to time. Actual disk utilization is unchanged.

> Key: CASSANDRA-9592
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9592
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Benedict
> Assignee: Benedict
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 2.1.7
>
>
> There's more race conditions affecting compaction task submission than
> CASSANDRA-7745, so to prevent some of these problems stalling compactions, I
> propose simply submitting background compactions once every minute, if
> possible. This will typically be a no-op, but there's no harm in that, since
> it's very cheap to do.
