> Ideas taken here: http://rocksdb.org/blog/2921/compaction_pri/
> Current strategy in LCS is that we keep track of the token that was last 
> compacted and then we start a compaction with the sstable containing the next 
> token (kOldestSmallestSeqFirst in the blog post above)
> The rocksdb blog post above introduces a few ideas how this could be improved:
> * pick the 'coldest' sstable (sstable with the oldest max timestamp) - we 
> want to keep the hot data (recently updated) in the lower levels to avoid 
> write amplification
> * pick the sstable with the highest tombstone ratio, we want to get 
> tombstones to the top level as quickly as possible.
