Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-9592: ---------------------------------------------- bq. We should make this new task every 5/10 minutes then so that we don't start compactions early. Make it every 1 minute, just delay it by 5? > `Periodically attempt to submit background compaction tasks > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-9592 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9592 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Benedict > Assignee: Benedict > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 2.1.x > > > There's more race conditions affecting compaction task submission than > CASSANDRA-7745, so to prevent some of these problems stalling compactions, I > propose simply submitting background compactions once every minute, if > possible. This will typically be a no-op, but there's no harm in that, since > it's very cheap to do. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
