(was: Should the problem block this jira issue?
I haven't seen this before, what can I do to continue?  
Thanks [~stack]]  [~tedyu]])

> When a compaction completed, may there are also many storefiles in the store, 
> and CompactPriority < 0, then compactSplitThread will do a "Recursive 
> enqueue" compaction request instead of request a split:
> {code:title=CompactSplitThread.java|borderStyle=solid}
>         if (completed) {
>           // degenerate case: blocked regions require recursive enqueues
>           if (store.getCompactPriority() <= 0) {
>             requestSystemCompaction(region, store, "Recursive enqueue");
>           } else {
>             // see if the compaction has caused us to exceed max region size
>             requestSplit(region);
>           }
> {code}
> But in some situation, the "recursive enqueue" request may return null, and 
> not build up a new compaction runner. For example, an other compaction of the 
> same region is running, and compaction selection will exclude all files older 
> than the newest files currently compacting, this may cause no enough files 
> can be selected by the "recursive enqueue" request. When this happen, split 
> will not be trigged. If the input load is high enough, compactions aways 
> running on the region, and split will never be triggered.
> In our cluster, this situation happened, and a huge region more than 400GB 
> and 100+ storefiles appeared. Version is 0.98.10, and the trank also have the 
> problem.
