Log flush recommendation

[Vincent Rischmann <me...@vrischmann.me>]

Hi,



I've been reading on log flush recommendations today and I have a
question:


Up until now I've been basing my production configuration for the log
flush on this: http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#prodconfig


It works fine, but then I saw here
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#topic-config that the
recommendation is to not use log.flush at all.


Is the production config simply outdated, or is there something else
that requires regular log.flush ?


Thanks,

Vincent.
