> Hi, 
> Cassandra version 4.1.2.
> We had a huge partition in our Cassandra production cluster (200GiB+) which 
> was caused by an application bug. We were able to complete a partition level 
> deletion for this partition and were expecting tombstones to be deleted post 
> gc_grace_seconds but it happened after the next compaction. Just wondering if 
> this is a bug?
> I have restored a snapshot of the offending CF into our lab environment and 
> completed above steps but unable to reproduce this behavior.
> Let me know if you'd like me to complete any activity in the lab.
> Here's the associated extract from the system log.
> {code:java}
