Branimir Lambov commented on CASSANDRA-18756:
---------------------------------------------
[~mck], could you do the second review this small patch which corrects a
problem with CASSANDRA-13418? Your name came up as a reviewer for that ticket
and it would be great to get the opinion of someone who has some context on it.

> Key: CASSANDRA-18756
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18756
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Local/Compaction
> Reporter: Branimir Lambov
> Priority: Normal
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> When {{unsafe_aggressive_sstable_expiration}} is turned on, TWCS should not
> create or maintain an iterator of overlapping sstables. However, because
> {{TimeWindowCompactionController}} inherits from {{CompactionController}} and
> only sets {{ignoreOverlaps}} after the base class has constructed the overlap
> iterator, it ends up making an overlap iterator and then never updating it.
> The end result is that such a compaction keeps references to lots of and
> likely _all_ other SSTables on the node and thus delays the deletion of
> obsolete ones by hours or even days.
