I'd rather reduce the performance impact of being behind, than do more
full compactions: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2498

Not crazy but a queue-rewriter would be nontrivial. For now I'm okay
with saying "add capacity until compaction can mostly keep up." (Most
people's problem is making compaction LESS aggressive, hence
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2156.)
