    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1947?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13655027#comment-13655027 ] 

Mike Percy commented on FLUME-1947:
-----------------------------------

Hari, after FLUME-1819 this patch no longer applies. Looks like a few changes have gone in and this one needs rework.

> This is so that the process executed blocks till the channel clears up. This is exceptionally useful if the process is a tail -F or something like that. 
> In addition, the exec source does have issues with respect to the last batch not being sent. We could also specify a timeout at the end of which the batch should be flushed to the channel if there are no new events.
