[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-3859) Use consistent config names for duration (with units!)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3859?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14290600#comment-14290600 ] 

Sean Owen commented on SPARK-3859:
----------------------------------

I double-checked that all of the config properties that are expressed in time, like timeouts, durations, and rates, have their units documented in {{configuration.md}}. IMHO it's probably not worth adding 20 new properties and deprecating 20 and supporting both just to add the units to the property name.

> There are many configs in Spark that refer to some unit of time. However, from the first glance it is unclear what these units are. We should find a consistent way to append the units to the end of these config names and deprecate the old ones in favor of the more consistent ones.
