> It looks like the latest log segment is always touched when the broker upon start-up regardless of whether it has corrupt data or not, which fudges the segment's mtime. Minor issue, but I found it a bit misleading when trying to verify a log cleanup setting in production. I think it should be as simple as adding a guard in FileMessageSet's recover method to skip truncate if validUpTo == the length of the segment. Will test this later.
