Hi,

I have one table having 2T data saved in c* each node. 
And if using LCS, the data will have 5 level:

L1: 160M * 10 = 1.6G
L2: 1.6G * 10 = 16G
L3: 16G * 10 = 160G
L4: 160G * 10 = 1.6T
L5: 1.6T * 10 = 16T
When I looking into the source code, I found an option: fanout_size.

The default value is 10. What about change this value to 100? Then the level 
will reduce to 3:

L1: 160M * 100 = 16G
L2: 16G * 100 = 1.6T
L3: 1.6T * 100 = 160T
Or even could I set this to 10000? And all files are in a same level. Should it 
be better then?

What is the cons of the bigger value of this option?

Thanks for your help.

Jian
