Documentation

Definition

The minimum of records that all partitions of a table must have until the table gets merged. If all the partitions of a table have less records then this threshhold the partitions will get merged, so that after the merge at least one partition has more records than this threshhold. This threshold must be strictly less then half of the maximum records per partition threshhold.

Example

If this threshhold is one million records and the table in question has 5 million records and is splitted on 10 hosts, so that every partition contains 500.000 records, then the table is merged to one partition.
