stack commented on HBASE-1058:
------------------------------

On v4, is one minute enough Andrew to let a major compaction of many files 
complete?

I'd read the following 120 from Configuration (The setting doesn't have to make 
it out to hbase*.xml -- its ok if you have to read the src to figure that the 
setting can be changed IMO).

{code}
+    while (count++ < 120) { // wait up to 1 minute, max
{code}

Otherwise, I'm good w/ this patch J-D and A.   Its a coarse leash on our 
tendency to run away regards number of store files; any change is an 
improvement.  We can improve on this first cut.
