------------------------------

I got 'Something broke! (Error 500)' when I tried uploading it.  Will try again 
in morning and then ask INFRA if it persists.

> Multithreaded compactions (HBASE-1476) will solve the problem of major 
> compactions clogging high-priority minor compactions.  However, there is 
> still a problem here.  Since compactions are store-level, the store 
> undergoing major compaction will have it's storefile count increase during 
> the major.  We really need a way to allow multiple outstanding compactions 
> per store.  compactSelection() should lock/reserve the files being used for 
> compaction.  This will also allow us to know what we're going to compact when 
> inserting into the CompactSplitThread and make more informed priority 
> queueing decisions.
