Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-9829:
-------------------------------------------
Do we think UCS replaces substantially all LCS use cases, or just many of them?
> Dynamically adjust LCS level sizes

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9829
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Local/Compaction
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Priority: Normal

> Fix For: 5.x

> LCS works best when the top level is full. Then 90% of reads can be served
> from a single sstable. By contrast if the top level is only 10% full then
> 90% of reads will be served from two. This results in worse performance as
> well as confused users.
> To address this, we can adjust the ideal top level size to how much data is
> actually in it (and set each corresponding lower level to 1/10 of the next
> one above).
