Thanks much!!!  Better to hear at least one other person sees the same thing 
;).  Sometimes these posts just go silent.

Subject: Re: compaction throughput rate not even close to 16MB

I have noticed the same. I think in the "real" world your compaction throughput 
is limited by other things. If I had to speculate I would say that compaction 
can remove expired tombstones, however doing this requires bloom filter checks, 
etc.

I think that setting is more important with multi threaded compaction and/or 
more compaction slots. In those cases it may actually throttle something.

I was wondering about the compactionthroughput.  I never see ours get even 
close to 16MB and I thought this is supposed to throttle compaction, right?  
Ours is constantly less than 3MB/sec from looking at our logs or do I have this 
totally wrong?  How can I see the real throughput so that I can understand how 
to throttle it when I need to?

94,940,780 bytes to 95,346,024 (~100% of original) in 38,438ms = 2.365603MB/s.  
2,350,114 total rows, 2,350,022 unique.  Row merge counts were {1:2349930, 
2:92, }

Thanks,
