Hi All, Could someone explain why the compaction manager stops compacting when it has a number of pending tasks?
I have a test cluster that I am using to stress test IO throughput, i.e. find out what a safe load for our hardware is. Over a 16 hour period my node cluster completes approximately 49,000 tasks per node. After stopping my test compaction continues for a few minutes then stops. There are ~7,000 tasks still pending. No more tasks will be executed until I start another test and the 7000 pending will never be executed. I'm using leveled compaction with 5MB SS tables and my tests have a 50:50 read:write ratio. Each value is a 10K byte array with random content. Thanks, Martin
