Makes garbage collection more efficient at reclaiming space.
In one of the nodes, there was a performance effect for an interval of 1-2min, where block validation time jumped up to 30s. Note that this node had been running compaction every 15min for a while, so there was a lot of garbage sst files.
The other two test nodes showed no ill effect in block validation time.
All 3 nodes reclaimed some 10G of space thanks to the compaction.
