Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-868:
---------------------------------------

bq. What do we do for the logs directory? Can we put the cache dir inside the 
logs dir?

The default for walogs and logs is $ACCUMULO_HOME.  User are encouraged to 
change both.  Another problem I have seen with ACCUMULO_HOME is its on NFS 
sometimes, which is not good for logs or cache.   System tmp dir will be local 
and writable.   I share your concern about tmp filling up, I have seen this 
happen and when tmp dir is in OS partition it can be a disaster.  So I think 
tmp has the best chance of working out of the box for a new user, but could 
cause problems in the long term on production systems.

We could put the property in the example config (like walog config), 
encouraging user to set it to something appropriate for their system. Default 
it system tmp so it works out of the box for new users, but make system admins 
cognizant of this config for production systems.  Comment in the example config 
should point out that this propery only matters if using vfs classloader.

> The current caching of jars is in /tmp and seems to be per process.   Can 
> this be made to survive process restarts?  Similar to rsync.
