             Summary: ReplaceText improvement when removing flowfile content
                 Key: NIFI-7183
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7183
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Pierre Villard
            Assignee: Pierre Villard


Quite often I see users using ReplaceText processor to remove the content of 
the flow files. However, quite frequently the defaults values are kept in place 
except the "Replacement Value" which is set to an empty string. This is a bit 
inefficient because it'll still do the regex evaluation. It'd be more efficient 
if changing the "Replacement Strategy" to "Always Replace".

We could make the processor a bit more clever and do this automatically. This 
will increase performances and reduce CPU consumption.
