------------------------------------------
Summary: Improve anticompaction after incremental repair
Key: CASSANDRA-6851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6851
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Marcus Eriksson
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.1 beta2
After an incremental repair we iterate over all sstables and split them in two
parts, one containing the repaired data and one the unrepaired. We could in
theory double the number of sstables on a node.
To avoid this we could make anticompaction also do a compaction, for example,
if we are to anticompact 10 sstables, we could anticompact those to 2.
Note that we need to avoid creating too big sstables though, if we anticompact
all sstables on a node it would essentially be a major compaction.
