Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-8759: -------------------------------------- Can't test the code right now. But I notice it does not contain a flush. A major compaction issued by HBaseAdmin does force a flush, and hence stuff that's in the memstore will not get compacted away until it is actually flushed to disk. > Family Delete Markers not getting purged after major compaction > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-8759 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8759 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Compaction > Affects Versions: 0.94.7 > Reporter: Mujtaba Chohan > Priority: Minor > > On table with VERSIONS => '1', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'true'.
