----------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.2.x
3.x
> DTCS historic compaction, possibly with major compaction
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-10490
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10490
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jonathan Shook
> Fix For: 3.x, 2.2.x
>
>
> Presently, it's simply painful to run a major compaction with DTCS. It
> doesn't really serve a useful purpose. Instead, a DTCS major compaction
> should allow for a DTCS-style compaction to go back before
> max_sstable_age_days. We can call this a historic compaction, for lack of a
> better term.
> Such a compaction should not take precedence over normal compaction work, but
> should be considered a background task. By default there should be a cap on
> the number of these tasks running. It would be nice to have a separate
> "max_historic_compaction_tasks" and possibly a
> "max_historic_compaction_throughput" in the compaction settings to allow for
> separate throttles on this. I would set these at 1 and 20% of the usual
> compaction throughput if they aren't set explicitly.
> It may also be desirable to allow historic compaction to run apart from
> running a major compaction, and to simply disable major compaction altogether
> for DTCS.
