I played around with this branch locally. I created a table with
10,000,000 entries using test_ingest using the following commands.
```
./bin/accumulo shell -u root -p secret -e "createtable test_ingest"
./bin/accumulo org.apache.accumulo.test.TestIngest -u root -p secret
--timestamp 1 --size 50 --random 56 --rows 10000000 --start 0 --cols 1
--instance instance16
```
I set the rate limit to 5M and forced a compaction. I saw the following in
the tserver logs.
```
Compaction 2<< 10,000,000 read | 10,000,000 written | 122,925 entries/sec |
81.350 secs | 431,758,096 bytes | 5307413.596 byte/sec
```
Then I split the table into 8 tablets and forced a compaction to test the
rate limit for multiple threads. I had the default of 3 compaction threads. I
saw the following in the logs for this test.
```
