> The hdfs sink rollSize parameter is compared against uncompressed event sizes.
> The net of this is that if you are using compression and expect the size of your files on HDFS to be rolled/sized based on the value set for rollSize than your files will be much smaller due to compression.
> We should take into account when compression is set and roll based on the compressed size on hdfs.
