Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-8299:
--------------------------------------
bq.Would smallest be empty in this case ?
Probably not, assuming that there is some set of files that can satisfy the
other conditions on a compaction. See the previous discussion on why we want
to skip some compactions.
> ExploringCompactionPolicy can get stuck in rare cases.
