----------------------------------------
Oh I see. Thanks.
Say we have compaction frequency as weekly once and as of now it will make 7
files as it is daily grouping. And as per monthly policy this would have been
grouped as one file. Correct. And next week compaction will again compact the
last week's file + this week's to make one file (as the goal is one file per
month) So the IO will be more than old way? Just trying to understand the
full diff.. Sorry if am missing some obvious things. Did not check MOB area
from a long time now and I might have forgot many things.

> Today the mob region holds all mob files for all regions. With daily
> partition mob compaction policy, after major mob compaction, there is still
> one file per region daily. Given there is 365 days in one year, at least 365
> files per region. Since HDFS has limitation for number of files under one
> folder, this is not going to scale if there are lots of regions. To reduce
> mob file number, we want to introduce other partition policies such as
> weekly, monthly to compact mob files within one week or month into one file.
> This jira is create to track this effort.
