Compaction: Restore SetupForCompaction functionality#788
Merged
Conversation
In facebook/rocksdb#11658, files are no longer controlled by the access_hint_on_compaction_start flag by removing the content of SetupForCompaction. However, this leads to degradation in compaction read speed when combined with compaction_readahead_size since once a file is opened, in linux, it is hinted with POSIX_FADV_RANDOM. See #787 for full details. Add back the default hint to avoid degradation in this scenario.
