> ExecSource has a default batchSize: 20, exec source read data from the
> source, then put it into the cache, after the cache is full, push it to the
> channel.
> but if exec source's cache is not full, and there isn't any input for a long
> time, then these entries always kept in the cache, there is no chance to the
> channel until the source's cache is full.
> so, the patch added a new config line: batchTimeout for ExecSource, and
> default is 3 seconds, if batchTimeout exceeded, push all cached data to the
> channel even the cache is not full.
