Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-11120:
--------------------------------------------

bq.  I don't see hbase.hstore.compaction.min.size in code base any more

Yeah I was confused by this too, [~stack], until I found this thread that you 
started for this reason a while back: 
http://osdir.com/ml/general/2013-06/msg41068.html

Basically, {{CompactionConfiguration}} was written with a "configuration 
prefix" so doing a grep on that config (or hbase.hstore.compaction.max.size) 
won't return anything. I think we should undo the "refactoring" in that class 
since it obviously breaks a pattern we're used to, which is to completely spell 
out the configuration names so we can easily search for them.

> [14:20:38]  <jdcryans>         seems that there's 
> http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#compaction and 
> http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#managed.compactions
> [14:20:56]  <jdcryans>         the latter doesn't say much, except that you 
> should manage them
> [14:21:44]  <jdcryans>         the former gives a good description of the 
> _old_ selection algo
> [14:45:25]  <jdcryans>         this is the new selection algo since C5 / 
> 0.96.0: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7842
