Guangxu Cheng commented on HBASE-17928:
---------------------------------------

bq.Is this any good if currently we have a long-running compaction currently in 
operation hogging all i/o with no end in sight?

[~stack] Maybe the scene is different.We just need to clear the compaction 
queues in our production cluster.
In our production cluster, we will run major compaction on a table at 1:00 am 
every day(1:00 to 5:00 is off-peak times)
If the compaction has not done before 5:00 am, we will clear compaction queues 
regardless of the running compactions.

Cancel long-running compactions is also a useful feature. 
Maybe we can create a new issue to implement the functions as I listed earlier.
I'd like to work on that.

> 2. Compact is not completed within the specified time period
> In this case, clearing the queue is a better choice, so as not to affect the
