Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-8299:
-----------------------------------------
{code}potentialMatchFiles.size() > bestSelection.size(){code} is always true
initially and true for any larger potential match after that.
If no compaction is in ratio (which can be true in normal case), it would
always do the maximum possible compaction, wouldn't it?
50 1 1, minfiles 3 would major compact as far as I see, which seems wrong, it
should wait for more small files to appear.
> ExploringCompactionPolicy can get stuck in rare cases.
