Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-5042:
-----------------------------------

It may be better to match files starting with the same name, and stat them and 
delete oldest file(s) up the maxBackupIndex specified number.  It's cheaper to 
do file stat than regex filename matching.

>  Add expiration handling to the chukwa log4j appender
