Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-7055:
--------------------------------------
bq. I'm guessing the separate config file is used to support runtime reloading
of the tiering strategies? Putting it in a separate config means that users
won't get confused into thinking that other properties in hbase-site are
reloadable.
Makes sense, but I've seen a comment on CompactionConfiguration that indicates
that it is not there. Did not check the code though.

>From my understanding of a skim through the patch, this is not the leveldb
>approach of doing level-wise compaction with non-overlapping key ranges, but
>divides the candidate space into tiers (at most 3 tiers?). Regardless, it is
>good that this also seem to introduce pluggable compaction policies, but I
>dont think we should change the default policy without understanding the
>impacts of the new algo.
> port HBASE-6371 tier-based compaction from 0.89-fb to trunk
