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

Hey Randy,

There is a "Max Bin Age" property for MergeContent, does that solve the case you are trying to address?  If not, could you please provide some additional information or examples so we can establish a strategy to address it?

Thanks!

> MergeContent collects a certain size of data or number of events prior to emitting a merged flowfile. This works well for rapid ingestion, as usually downstream consumers see merged FlowFiles with acceptable latency.
> However, some ingest rates are spiky, or infrequent, greatly increasing the latency a downstream consumer sees. Adding a time-based merge window would be very useful.
