wohali edited a comment on issue #1460: Replaced broken node uses more data storage than expected URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1460#issuecomment-412421542 @jvegaseg Sorry, my misunderstanding. ~~Unfortunately db file has a unique value that specifies when the database was initialized. This value (effectively a coordinated datetime stamp, you can see it in the filename of the shard) is consistent across all shards on either side of the compaction process, meaning it is changed post compaction. The value is only specified once in the `_dbs` system database, which is aggressively forced to be consistent across all nodes. There's no way to say that, for node X, for shard 00-1f, use the updated shard, but for nodes Y and Z (in a standard `n=3` database) keep using the original shard since they are not yet done compacting. Things would get messy quickly.~~ I can see the value in what you're proposing, but I'm not sure it's possible.
