Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-8739:
-------------------------------------
My question is more how this then causes problems, if it fails to
markCompacting the candidates it selects?
> Don't check for overlap with sstables that have had their start positions
> moved in LCS

> When picking compaction candidates in LCS, we check that we won't cause any
> overlap in the higher level. Problem is that we compare the files that have
> had their start positions moved meaning we can cause overlap. We need to also
> include the tmplink files when checking this.
> Note that in 2.1 overlap is not as big problem as earlier, if adding an
> sstable would cause overlap, we send it back to L0 instead, meaning we do a
> bit more compaction but we never actually have overlap.
