#9332: [Swarm] Auto-compaction blocks other sessions and can re-r
stale
Cluster:
Memory Management Enhancements
Issue #9277
Analysis:
1. **Auto-compaction blocking other sessions**: The issue of auto-compaction running inside session and global lane locks, thereby blocking other sessions for minutes, indicates a potential bottleneck in the system. This could lead to decreased performance and inefficient resource utilization.
2. **Immediate re-run of compaction**: The occurrence of a second compaction firing immediately after the first one, especially when overflow occurs, suggests a potential flaw in the compaction process or its triggering mechanism. This behavior could lead to unnecessary resource consumption and potential performance degradation.
3. **Impact on system performance**: The blocking of other sessions during compaction and the potential for immediate re-runs can impact the overall system perfo
