Parth Setya created CASSANDRA-9776: -------------------------------------- Summary: Tombstone Compaction Not Getting Triggered on a single SSTable even when the % of Droppable > 85% Key: CASSANDRA-9776 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9776 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: New Feature Environment: RHEL Apache Cassandra v 2.0.14 Reporter: Parth Setya Fix For: 2.0.14
The following steps can be used to Replicate the Issue: 1. Reduce gc_grace_seconds to 18000 2. Set tombstone_compaction_interval to 1 day 3. Insert 9 Million Rows 4. Delete 9 Million Rows 5. Insert 1 Million Rows 6. Run Major Compaction so that the Tombstones for 9 million rows and expiring columns for 1 million rows are in the same SStable.(In may case the size of the resultant sstable was 963M) Note: I also ran "nodetool cfstats" command and the found that the number of keys in the CF to be 10000000(as expected) Tombstone Compaction on the resultant SSTable should have been triggered after 1 day after the creation of that Table but nothing happened for > 2 days. After 3 days I ran major compaction the size of the table was reduced to 213M. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
