--------------------------------

             Summary: Old slave directories should not be garbage collected based on file modification time
                 Key: MESOS-419
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-419
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Vinod Kone
            Assignee: Vinod Kone


Since running executors, do not change the modification time of the slave work directory, it would be bad to schedule old slave directories for deletion based on their mod time. Instead, these work directories should be scheduled for gc based on the 'gc_delay' flag.

At Twitter, this manifested as task directories getting immediately gc'ed when long running slaves were rolled for an upgrade.
