Dikang Gu commented on CASSANDRA-11550:
---------------------------------------
I test this in one of our cluster, in default fanout_size=10 case, the sstables
look like this: [1, 11/10, 135/100, 98, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], in fanout_size=6 case,
the sstables look like this: [1, 7/6, 38/36, 142, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]. So in this
case, after the change, the highest level for sstables is still level 3, and we
can see improvements (reduce) in space usage, write amplification, and
compaction cpu usage. I can see ~20% improvements on those areas.
Some graphs are attached.

> Currently, the fanout size for LeveledCompactionStrategy is hard coded in the
> system (10). It would be useful to make the fanout size to be tunable, so
> that we can change it according to different use cases.
> Further more, we can change the size dynamically.
