Andre commented on NIFI-940:
----------------------------

The comment that I would make from a "user" standpoint is that having to use an 
updateattribute processor will cause a significant overhead to simple tasks 
like saving based on date, sending host, etc. 

I remember reading comments in the past that to maximise performance DFMs 
should strive to use as few processors as possible and this seems like a good 
example of that. Should I have to create a provenance event just to set a 
filename? Perhap yes (from a provenance point if view) but if it is the case 
then we may want to document this rationale 

> Expose 'filename' as a Property on PutFile, PutHDFS, PutFTP, PutSFTP, and 
> other Put-esque processors
