Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-6028:
-------------------------------------

I think having a way to interrupt active compactions would allow implementing a 
reasonable short-term solution to HBASE-11368. Any chance you have a patch 
[~esteban]?

> Depending on current server load, it can be extremely expensive to run 
> periodic minor / major compactions.  It would be helpful to have a feature 
> where a user could use the shell or a client tool to explicitly cancel an 
> in-progress compactions.  This would allow a system to recover when too many 
> regions became eligible for compactions at once
