> Currently we do compaction on a region when the
> hbase.hstore.compactionThreshold is reached - default 3
> I thank we should configure a max number of mapfiles to compact at one time
> simulator to doing a minor compaction in bigtable. This keep compaction's
> form getting tied up in one region to long letting other regions get way to
> many memcache flushes making compaction take longer and longer for each region
> If we did that when a regions updates start to slack off the max number will
> eventuly include all mapfiles causeing a major compaction on that region.
> Unlike big table this would leave the master out of the process and letting
> the region server handle the major compaction when it has time.
> When doing a minor compaction on a few files I thank we should compact the
> newest mapfiles first leave the larger/older ones for when we have low
> updates to a region.
