Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-892:
---------------------------------------

A simple workaround for 1.4 and 1.5 may be to add "flush -p .*" as a first step in the shutdown script.

> I have a test cluster which is loaded with a very large number of disks per node.  I increased the number of minor compaction threads accordingly.  When I shut down accumulo, I saw it minor compacting just one tablet at a time.  In another shell, I forced a flush, and the data was pushed out much more quickly.  It would be nice if the minor compaction threads could be used to make shutdown run more quickly.
