Carl Yeksigian commented on CASSANDRA-12961:
--------------------------------------------
I don't think we want to move this check outside of the loop, as we only want
to do STCS in L0 if we would otherwise do a compaction in a higher level - if
we have the space in L1, we would prefer to do a normal L0→L1 compaction
to bring sstables out of L0, not continue to compact them with each other in
L0. But, we should definitely short circuit this search after we've searched
for the STCS candidates once.

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compaction
> Reporter: Jeff Jirsa
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: lhf

> It's very likely that the check for L0 STCS candidates (if L0 is falling
> behind) can be moved outside of the loop, or at very least made so that it's
> not called on each loop iteration:
> {code}
> for (int i = generations.length - 1; i > 0; i--)
> {
> List<SSTableReader> sstables = getLevel(i);
> if (sstables.isEmpty())
> continue; // mostly this just avoids polluting the debug log
> with zero scores
> // we want to calculate score excluding compacting ones
> Set<SSTableReader> sstablesInLevel = Sets.newHashSet(sstables);
> Set<SSTableReader> remaining = Sets.difference(sstablesInLevel,
> cfs.getTracker().getCompacting());
> double score = (double) SSTableReader.getTotalBytes(remaining) /
> (double)maxBytesForLevel(i, maxSSTableSizeInBytes);
> logger.trace("Compaction score for level {} is {}", i, score);
> if (score > 1.001)
> {
> // before proceeding with a higher level, let's see if L0 is
> far enough behind to warrant STCS
> CompactionCandidate l0Compaction =
> getSTCSInL0CompactionCandidate();
> if (l0Compaction != null)
> return l0Compaction;
> ......
> {code}
