Hi Greg, just picked up this one from the archive while researching a different issue and thought I'd follow up.

Can you elaborate on the scenarios where leveldb is misbehaving? I've also seen reports of this before, with .sst files growing to several GB in size. Is this a cause for concern (for example, would you expect mons to slow down) and if so, how would you recover? Would you essentially nuke the mon and replace it with another? Cheers, Florian
