Higher `--snapshot-count` holds more Raft entries in memory until snapshot, thus causing [recurrent higher memory usage](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/60589#issuecomment-371977156). Since leader retains latest Raft entries for longer, a slow follower has more time to catch up before leader snapshot. `--snapshot-count` is a tradeoff between higher memory usage and better availabilities of slow followers.

In performance-wise, `--snapshot-count` greater than 100,000 may impact the write throughput. Higher number of in-memory objects can slow down [Go GC mark phase `runtime.scanobject`](https://golang.org/src/runtime/mgc.go), and infrequent memory reclamation makes allocation slow. Performance varies depending on the workloads and system environments. However, in general, too frequent compaction affects cluster availabilities and write throughputs. Too infrequent compaction is also harmful placing too much pressure on Go garbage collector. See https://www.slideshare.net/mitakeh/understanding-performance-aspects-of-etcd-and-raft for more research results.

Compactor only supports periodic compaction. Compactor records latest revisions every 5-minute, until it reaches the first compaction period (e.g. 10-hour). In order to retain key-value history of last compaction period, it uses the last revision that was fetched before compaction period, from the revision records that were collected every 5-minute. When `--auto-compaction-retention=10`, compactor uses revision 100 for compact revision where revision 100 is the latest revision fetched from 10 hours ago. If compaction succeeds or requested revision has already been compacted, it resets period timer and starts over with new historical revision records (e.g. restart revision collect and compact for the next 10-hour period). If compaction fails, it retries in 5 minutes.

For instance, when hourly writes are 100 and `--auto-compaction-retention=10`, v3.1 compacts revision 1000, 2000, and 3000 for every 10-hour, while v3.2.x, v3.3.0, v3.3.1, and v3.3.2 compact revision 1000, 1100, and 1200 for every 1-hour. If compaction succeeds or requested revision has already been compacted, it resets period timer and removes used compacted revision from historical revision records (e.g. start next revision collect and compaction from previously collected revisions).
