Summary: This property can help debug why SST files aren't being deleted. Previously we only had the property "rocksdb.is-file-deletions-enabled". However, even when that returned true, obsolete SSTs may still not be deleted due to the coarse-grained mechanism we use to prevent newly created SSTs from being accidentally deleted. That coarse-grained mechanism uses a lower bound file number for SSTs that should not be deleted, and this property exposes that lower bound.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
