Resolution: Done
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.10)
Resolving this issue as the feasibility of this new garbage collection strategy
has been validated. The implementation has been cleaned up and is committed on
trunk per OAK-7445.

> Currently cleanup is run only after the compaction phase. Assuming that the
> system is configured to retain the default value of two generations, it might
> happen that, during the compaction phase, the system will need space for a
> third generation, the one being currently compacted.
> In order to provide better guarantees on the amount of used disk space, it
> should be possible to optimistically perform cleanup before compaction,
> getting rid of the oldest generation before a new one is constructed.
> This issue tracks the feasibility of this approach, to be validated with a
> simple proof of concept.
