[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-3877) Determine Proper Defaults for Compaction ThreadPools

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3877?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13276346#comment-13276346 ] 

Hudson commented on HBASE-3877:
-------------------------------

Integrated in HBase-TRUNK-on-Hadoop-2.0.0 #5 (See [https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase-TRUNK-on-Hadoop-2.0.0/5/])
    [HBASE-5867] Improve Compaction Throttle Default

Summary:
We recently had a production issue where our compactions fell
behind because our compaction throttle was improperly tuned and
accidentally upgraded all compactions to the large pool. The default
from HBASE-3877 makes 1 bad assumption: the default number of flushed
files in a compaction. MinFilesToCompact should be taken into
consideration. As a default, it is less damaging for the large thread
to be slightly higher than it needs to be and only get timed-majors
versus having everything accidentally promoted.

Test Plan:  - mvn test

> With the introduction of HBASE-1476, we now have multithreaded compactions + 2 different ThreadPools for large and small compactions.  However, this is disabled by default until we can determine a proper default throttle point.  Opening this JIRA to log all discussion on how to select a good default for this case.
