> We are noticing increase in P99 while the compactions are running at full stream. Most of it is because of the increased GC activity (followed by full GC).
> The obvious solution/work around is to throttle the compactions, but with SSD's we can get more disk bandwidth for reads and compactions.
> It will be nice to move the compaction object allocations off heap. First thing to do might be create a Offheap Slab allocator with the size as the compaction in memory size and recycle it.
> Also we might want to make it configurable so folks can disable it when they don't have off-heap memory to reserve.
