I suspect they are getting size tiered in L0 - if you have too many sstables in L0, we will do size tiered compaction on sstables in L0 to improve performance
Use tools/bin/sstablemetadata to get the level for those sstables, if they are in L0, that is probably the reason. /Marcus On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 2:06 PM, Andrei Ivanov <aiva...@iponweb.net> wrote: > Dear all, > > I have the following problem: > - C* 2.0.11 > - LCS with default 160MB > - Compacted partition maximum bytes: 785939 (for cf/table xxx.xxx) > - Compacted partition mean bytes: 6750 (for cf/table xxx.xxx) > > I would expect the sstables to be of +- maximum 160MB.
