Arvind Prabhakar commented on FLUME-1189:
-----------------------------------------
@Brock - I just confirmed that I am seeing similar results with my ad-hoc
testing of the two systems.
Rather than removing it, I suggest adding deprecation warnings in the system,
sources, and documentation to discourage its use.
> Test ReoverableMemoryChannel throughput versus FileChannel

> I wrote both ReoverableMemoryChannel and FileChannel and the main difference
> between the two is that ReoverableMemoryChannel wraps MemoryChannel and as
> such has a very limited capacity while FileChannel uses the OS file cache to
> keep events in memory. I am not sure that ReoverableMemoryChannel has a much
> greater throughput than FileChannel and if not, then I think we should remove
> ReoverableMemoryChannel.
