   @moweonlee I have reviewed my notes of that day. The result was the same, if compaction was enabled at namespace level, bookies unreadable due to disk full. 
   
   In our systems we usually have compaction enabled globally but allow disabling it at topic level. We were surprised to check that such feature does not work anymore (I would swear to have seen it working in previous versions). We reported the issue in #15891, as such error seems to be related when trying to configure compaction at topic level.
   
   The only solution we have found is to **disable compaction at namespace level** when creating it. In that case bookies disk usage does not increase uncontrollably as with compaction.
   
   I would say that compaction is not a feature that works flawlessly in Pulsar, though on paper it sounds great to be able to work with both compacted and non-compacted topics at the same time.
