I checked the code of be. The config 'trash_file_expire_time_sec' is a unified configuration. It means that the expiration time of all tablets are the same. In other words, each tablet does not have its own expiration time.
I wonder if the code I understand is correct? If I understand correctly, we cannot force the tablet to expire immediately by force drop stmt.
