stack commented on HBASE-2462:
------------------------------

Looking at production regionserver compacting with J-D, we're just doing too 
much compacting.  Its running near back-to-back.  Need to fix.  Our default 
compaction trips and count of files seems too little.  Also, it looks like 
we'll merrily go ahead and compact together a 10MB file with a 1G file; we need 
to have in place barriers to this ever happening.  This issue is important to 
fix.. but yeah, 0.92.

> Review compaction heuristic and move compaction code out so standalone and 
> independently testable

> Anything that improves our i/o profile makes hbase run smoother.  Over in 
> HBASE-2457, good work has been done already describing the tension between 
> minimizing compactions versus minimizing count of store files.  This issue is 
> about following on from what has been done in 2457 but also, breaking the 
> hard-to-read compaction code out of Store.java out to a standalone class that 
> can be the easier tested (and easily analyzed for its performance 
> characteristics).
> If possible, in the refactor, we'd allow specification of alternate merge 
> sort implementations.
