Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-16782:
---------------------------------------------
Yeah, it might make sense to make this behaviour default for STCS, reason this
patch only adds it to LCS/TWCS is that's the only place we've seen this
bq. might be good enough even without raising the max limit.
The overhead when finishing a compaction is quite large, so running these
1000-sstable compactions really improves performance - especially if we have a
ton of sstables - recalculating the interval tree after each compaction is
quite slow in that case for example.
bq. is there a reason to place the new settings in cassandra.yaml instead of
compaction parameters
We didn't really see a case where we would want to override the defaults for
specific tables on a node - if we make this default for STCS that might need to
change though

> The goal when being behind in L0 should always be to get the number of
> sstables down to a reasonable level as soon as possible. Currently it is
> common that we run compactions on the large sstables but leave thousands of
> tiny sstables behind.
