1) -XX:+UseGCLogRotation must be used with
-Xloggc:<filename>
2) -XX:NumberOfGClogFiles=<number of files> must be >=1, default is one
3) -XX:GCLogFileSize=<number>M (or K) default will be set to 512K
if UseGCLogRotation set and -Xloggc gives file name, do Log rotation, depends
on other flag settings.
if NumberOfGClogFiles = 1, using same file, rotate log when reaches file
capicity (set by GCLogFileSize) in <filename>.0
if NumberOfGClogFiles > 1, rotate between files <filename>.0, <filename>.1,
..., <filename>.n-1
We should add these to the commented out gc logging options in cassandra-env.sh
