Juhani Connolly commented on FLUME-1857:
----------------------------------------

Other than the fact that there is no reason why someone would want such 
precision, there is no reason fur using seconds instead of ms.
                
> Specify in the User Guide that hdfs.idleTimeout is in Seconds

> The alternative is to change hdfs.idleTimeout to be in milliseconds, which is 
> more consistent with the other timeouts, but I figure there was some reason 
> for it to be how it is.
