> Today, the CFs are flushed purely based on the size of the data accumulated in Memtable. If a table has multiple CFs and some CFs are updated at a much slower pace than others, this can prevent a larger number of log files from being deleted. This is because the CF bit in the log header is only turned off when a CF is flushed. A log can't be deleted until all CF bits in the header are cleared. One solution is to add a background flusher that periodically force-flushes every CF.
