> Compaction throttling works as designed, but it has two drawbacks:
> * it requires manual tuning to choose the "right" value for a given machine
> * it does not allow compaction to "burst" above its limit if there is additional i/o capacity available while there are less application requests to serve
> Using ioprio_set instead solves both of these problems.
