> Follow-up from the implementation for compaction reads (CASSANDRA-19987)
> Notable points
> * Update the start-up check that impacts DIO writes
> ({_}checkKernelBug1057843{_})
> * RocksDB uses 1 MB flush buffer. This should be configurable and
> performance tested (256KB vs 1MB)
> * Introduce compaction_write_disk_access_mode /
> backgroud_write_disk_access_mode
> * Support for the compressed path would be most beneficial

> |FLUSH|Yes|No|Excluded: flushed data benefits from page cache due to read
> recency|
