I am interested in experiments with size tiered compaction, because i
get sstables which are never compacted because no other sstable is close
to their size, i have plans to experiment with bucket ratio which is
currently 50-150 percent to make it 33-200 percent.
Its all about changing constants at lines 170-171
https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/compaction/SizeTieredCompactionStrategy.java
if ((size > (oldAverageSize / 2) && size < (3 * oldAverageSize) / 2)
|| (size < minSSTableSize && oldAverageSize < minSSTableSize))
to make these constant configurable, i suppose something similar to
"min_sstable_size" is needed. Its min_sstable_size configurable by CF or
its node wide setup?
