I don't think it only force compaction once. When force compaction is enabled, it will go through major compaction. It will then set the forceGarabageCollection back to false. If after major compaction, the disk space is freed, we don't need to do force compaction again. If the disks are still filled up, the disk monitor will set the flag back to true again. > Not sure if it was bug in the current community code or it was > intended to be like that.)
