-------------------------------------------
Things I don't know:
# What is the Windows equivalent? /cc [~JoshuaMcKenzie]
# Should we pick a one-size-fits-all priority, or allow the user to override
class/priority? /cc [[email protected]]
> use ioprio_set instead of throttling by default

>
> Compaction throttling works as designed, but it has two drawbacks:
> * it requires manual tuning to choose the "right" value for a given machine
> * it does not allow compaction to "burst" above its limit if there is
> additional i/o capacity available while there are less application requests
> to serve
> Using ioprio_set instead solves both of these problems.
