Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-8283:
-------------------------------------------
I know [~eclark] doesn't like my idea but it would be easy to have both
policies:
{noformat}
if (defaultCompactionPolicy)
current code
else
Elliott's patch
{noformat}
I did that when testing a previous version of the patch on 0.94 to be able to
switch from one to another easily. I like it because it's not as involved as
backporting pluggable policies and it's less risky then just committing the
current patch that replaces the policy. The downside is that it's hacky, it
makes the code less readable, and if we ever want more policies in 0.94 then
we'll have to backport the pluggable policies code anyway.
