Billy Pearson commented on HBASE-938:
-------------------------------------

Looking at trunk my idea above will not work because we do not have the 
optional flush any more.

But yes the major compaction is based off the oldest timestamps from the 
mapfile's on the store level.
So restarts do not interfere with the Major compactions but will queue up over 
due Major Compactions because of the open.


> major compaction period is not checked periodically

> The major compaction period, hbase.hregion.majorcompaction, is not checked 
> periodically. Currently, we only request major compaction when the region is 
> open or split at which point we check whether the major compaction period is 
> due.
