Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-3690:
------------------------------------

One thought - could this be done on a per-bulkload case? ie when you write out 
the files from HFOF, you specify some kind of HFile meta tag about whether to 
include or not?

It seems like this isn't good to be cluster-wide for mixed-use clusters, when 
you might have some tables that have big bulk loads and others that are small 
increments?

> We ran an incremental scrape with HFileOutputFormat and encountered major 
> compaction storms.  This is caused by the bug in HBASE-3404.  The permanent 
> fix is a little tricky without HBASE-2856.  We realized that a quicker 
> solution for avoiding these compaction storms is to simply exclude bulk 
> import files from minor compactions and let them only be handled by 
> time-based major compactions.  Add with functionality along with a config 
> option to enable it.
