Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-3181: --------------------------------------------- What is unclear is what did stop the compactions from happening ? Because Brandon said that restarting didn't helped, but I get from that that compaction stopped before the restart. Basically, if the only thing that happened is "after a restart, if you don't do any inserts, no compaction happens", then ok, that's not a big deal. But if it is indeed that "Compaction just stops running at some point", then there is something that we need to fix. > Compaction fails to occur > ------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3181 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3181 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Brandon Williams > Assignee: Benjamin Coverston > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > Compaction just stops running at some point.
