Ashish Paliwal commented on FLUME-2729: --------------------------------------- I didn't look much into the patch, but I did used Guava retrying lib for a use case and it had some wonderful constructs like simple time based back-off, exponential back-off etc. Would be great if we can use something similar here. Just a suggestion > Allow pollableSource backoff times to be configurable > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLUME-2729 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2729 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ted Malaska > Assignee: Ted Malaska > Priority: Minor > Attachments: FLUME_2729.patch > > > There are use cases that require more control of the backoff times setting. > This jira will allow those times to be set through config of the source -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
