Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-7055:
-----------------------------------------
My take on this is that there appears to be at least few scenarios that sound
viable. E.g. old data is not as important and read rarely, so we don't care if
it stays uncompacted and assume blooms will help us ignore these files for the
keys that are actually being read; or new data is in cache so again there's no
reason to compact the latest files. Or both.
However, testing if these actually work require setting up a complicated test
scenario with specific read patterns, over large amounts of data, or a very
good simulation tool that would estimate read impact (cache usage, how many
files touched, what is going on in parallel); the will for either of these is
presently lacking.
On the other hand, patch is extremely low impact and will be off by default.
So yeah maybe we can keep it for 0.96.X.
