Stripe Compactions Stability

[Austin Heyne]

The HBase cluster we're running has well over 100TB of data spread 
across two tables and as you'd guess we're suffering from compaction 
times taking way to long (and we need to double or triple that volume). 
I've found information on Stripe Compactions [1] which it seems like we 
could benefit a lot from, however, 'experimental' is a scary word for 
productions systems so I just wanted to get a general sentiment around 
the stability of the feature. Any experience or input would be very helpful.

Thanks again,
Austin
