Summary: Evaluate default LCS sstable size Key: CASSANDRA-5727 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5727 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Task Components: Core Reporter: Jonathan Ellis Assignee: Daniel Meyer What we're not sure about is the effect on compaction efficiency -- larger files mean that each level contains more data, so reads will have to touch less sstables, but we're also compacting less unchanged data when we merge forward. So the question is, how big can we make the sstables to get the benefits of the first effect, before the second effect starts to dominate? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
