After having pondered this for a while, I'm inclined to think it isn't
such a good idea to use dumps_per_compaction for range_count: first, it
won't work for time series like workloads - the range_count won't scale
as the space size grows; second, after forcing compaction with
index.compact(), the dumps_per_compaction may collapse resulting in
massing range coalescing.
May be, we'd better use LSM tree fanout for the target number of ranges?
But how do we calculate it reliably?
