Jason Harvey updated CASSANDRA-4492:
------------------------------------

    Description: 
Running into an issue on a 6 node ring running 1.0.11 where whenever a somewhat 
large set of hints build up (seen as low as 400MB), compaction on the hints CF 
hangs indefinitely. Nothing of note in the logs. In some cases, the compaction 
hangs before a tmp sstable is even created.

I've wiped out every hints sstable I have and restarted several times. The 
issue always comes back rather quickly and predictably after wiping the 
sstables. Compaction always seems to succeed if the hints CFs are rather small.

Hints are enabled, and my hint window is the default of 1hr. I do have some 
copies of HintsColumnFamily sstables that do replicate this issue. However, the 
hints may contain confidential data. If they'd be helpful in troubleshooting 
this issue, let me know and I can see about sending them directly.

This ring was upgraded from 1.0.7. I didn't keep any hints from the upgrade.

Here is the output I see from compactionstats where a compaction has hung. The 
'bytes compacted' column never changes.
