> [14:53:10] <jdcryans> I'd say 80% of the time you should just let it
> happen naturally
> [14:53:26] <jdcryans> the main thing is deciding how often you want
> to major compact
> [14:53:38] <jdcryans> some people disable it completely because they
> don't update/delete
> [14:53:58] <jdcryans> others may decide to do it weekly because they
> don't update/delete that often
> [14:54:18] <jdcryans> and then there's the aggressive default of
> doing it every 24h
> [14:55:39] <jdcryans> and it looks like the default is now 1 week un
> trunk
> [14:58:35] <jdcryans> automatic major* compactions
