[jira] [Created] (COUCHDB-2817) Compaction daemon will only compact
views for shards that contain the design doc
Mike Wallace created COUCHDB-2817:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Compaction daemon will only compact views for shards that contain the design doc
Key: COUCHDB-2817
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2817
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: Database Core
Reporter: Mike Wallace
The compaction daemon is currently using couch_db:enum_docs/4 [1] to get the design documents for a database. This is a problem because couch_db:enum_docs/4 operates on a shard - we will therefore only get a list of all the design documents on that shard, rather than all design documents for the DB.
This means view shards for the DB shard will not get compacted unless the design doc happens to be on that shard.
I tested this out by generating some fragmented views and running the compaction daemon. After completion I found that only one view shard had been compacted [2] and verified that it was the shard that contains the design doc [3].
