Added Randomization to Cleanup Thread for ReplicatedMergeTree Tables
Added randomization when running the cleanup thread periodically forReplicatedMergeTreetables in order to avoid periodic load spikes when there are a very large number ofReplicatedMergeTreetables.
Why it matters
This feature addresses the issue of periodic load spikes caused by simultaneous cleanup operations on a very large number ofReplicatedMergeTree tables, improving overall cluster stability and performance.How to use it
The randomization is applied automatically to the cleanup thread forReplicatedMergeTree tables and does not require any user configuration or action.
