Egor Pahomov commented on SPARK-19524:
--------------------------------------

[~srowen], based on documentation, which says "newFilesOnly - Should process 
only new files and ignore existing files in the directory", I expect, that 
files which are already exist in folder to which I connect streaming, would be 
processed. It's not true. In reality files, which were created after time X 
would be procesed. Time X:

{code}
private val durationToRemember = slideDuration * numBatchesToRemember

val modTimeIgnoreThreshold = math.max(
        initialModTimeIgnoreThreshold,   // initial threshold based on 
newFilesOnly setting
        currentTime - durationToRemember.milliseconds  // trailing end of the 
remember window
      )
{code}

First, this code contradicts with documentation as far as I understand it. 
Second, this code contradicts with the name "newFilesOnly" itself. There is 
probably motivation behind this code, but I think the only way to find this 
motivation - git history and go over all tickets. 

Sorry, that I wasn't more specific first time.
