Benjamin Coverston commented on CASSANDRA-3181:
-----------------------------------------------

>From his repro I was able to get compactions going again with a simple write/flush.

>From Brandon, he's not sure how compactions stopped. There are only two scenarios where I see compactions stopping like this with the tiered compaction strategy:

# the server was restarted
# a compaction failed unexpectedly

The fact that there were no errors in the log makes #2 unlikely. I'm pretty sure that we're just looking at a problem where a server restarts and there is no more activity triggering a flush.

> Compaction just stops running at some point.  To repro, insert like 20M rows with a 1G heap and you'll get around 1k sstables.  Restarting doesn't help, you have to invoke a major to get anything to happen.
