Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-14079:
-----------------------------------------

Adding patch that adds a test to reproduce issue and breaks out of 
{{getNextBackgroundTask}} loop if the previous candidate is equal to the 
current.

3.11 patch: [branch|https://github.com/pauloricardomg/cassandra/tree/3.11-14079]

CI looks good.

> As a result of CASSANDRA-13948, LCS was looping indefinitely trying to 
> generate the same candidates for SSTables which were not on the tracker.
> We should add a protection on compaction strategies against looping 
> indefinitely to avoid similar bugs in the future.
