>From the output you shared, it looks like you have at least one *very* large partition — my guess is its lots of very small rows per partition. This would explain why the slow compaction and why "nodetool stop compaction" didn’t work (prior to CASSANDRA-14397 stop only works between partitions).
That large partition may cause problems elsewhere if its read.
