[jira] [Updated] (KAFKA-475) Time based log segment rollout

["Swapnil Ghike (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-475?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Swapnil Ghike updated KAFKA-475:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: kafka-475-v1.patch

To facilitate this, we can roll out a new log segment whenever a time threshold is reached if the size limit has not been reached already. We can fix this time limit for segment roll out as the same as retention time limit. These values will make sure that the number of open file handles at any point in the system cannot more than double.
