Adam Hattrell commented on CASSANDRA-12209: ------------------------------------------- It's pretty hard to break your cluster with STCS (it's possible but the edge cases are much harder to get to) - it's very easy with the other compaction strategies. If you could force users to properly benchmark all their workload before rolling live then, maybe, but even then I'd lean towards staying with the safe option. > Make Level compaction default > ----------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-12209 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12209 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: sankalp kohli > Priority: Minor > > Level Compaction has come a long way since it was added.
