>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: Structured Streaming
>            Reporter: Sunil Kumar
>            Assignee: Frederick Reiss
>             Fix For: 2.0.1, 2.1.0
>
>
> The StreamExecution maintains a write-ahead log of batch metadata in order to 
> allow repeating previously in-flight batches if the driver is restarted. 
> StreamExecution does not garbage-collect or compact this log in any way.
> Since the log is implemented with HDFSMetadataLog, these files will consume 
> memory on the HDFS NameNode. Specifically, each log file will consume about 
> 300 bytes of NameNode memory (150 bytes for the inode and 150 bytes for the 
> block of file contents; see 
> [https://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/latest/topics/admin_nn_memory_config.html].
>  An application with a 100 msec batch interval will increase the NameNode's 
> heap usage by about 250MB per day.
> There is also the matter of recovery. StreamExecution reads its entire log 
> when restarting. This read operation will be very expensive if the log 
> contains millions of entries spread over millions of files.
