Mike Percy commented on FLUME-2003:
-----------------------------------

I can see that... playing devil's advocate here... so why would you want lots 
of small flushes to HDFS? If you use large batch sizes then your throughput 
will be quite high. If you reduce replication factor your durability also goes 
down.
                
> It'll be nice if we can control the HDFS block-size and replication for 
> specific HDFS-sink instances
