Description

See discussion over in HBASE-3149. Nicolas suggests setting this setting way down, to the below:

<property>
   <name>hbase.hstore.compaction.min.size</name>
   <value>4194304</value>
   <description>
     The "minimum" compaction size. All files below this size are always
     included into a compaction, even if outside compaction ratio times
     the total size of all files added to compaction so far.
   </description>
  </property>

Lets try it.
