Brad Schoening commented on CASSANDRA-20448:
--------------------------------------------
The current output format seems pretty unfriendly. Perhaps a much better
option would be nicely formatted JSON like what IC sstablemetadata produces.
It's both machine and human readable.

> Utility sstableexpiredblockers should report the size of expired tables

> A key reason to run sstableexpiredblockers is that you have disk space
> accumulating and you wish to investigate what's consuming the disk space.
> If size was included in the output (as shown below), it would make the output
> more useful. Generally, when you find a blocked expired table, the first step
> is to check what size it is to see if it's large enough to be a problem.
