Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-7506:
-----------------------------------

Unfortunately the JVM is not that smart. It *always* starts writing a fresh 
{{solr_gc.log.0.current}} log file which is rolled into .0 without suffix. So 
after a restart, history gets lost even if we try to be smart. I'm working on 
something similar in SOLR-9570

> Roll over GC logs by default via bin/solr scripts

> The Oracle JDK supports rolling over GC logs. I propose to add the following 
> to the solr.in.{sh,cmd} scripts to enable it by default:
> {code}
> -XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation -XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=5 -XX:GCLogFileSize=20M
> {code}
> Unfortunately, the JDK doesn't have any option to append to existing log 
> instead of overwriting so the latest log is overwritten. Maybe we can have 
> the bin/solr script roll that after the process is killed?
