Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1665:
-----------------------------------------

Why do we need to sync inflightPuts and inflightTakes to disk when the channel 
is stopping? Inflights are only meant to make sure replay is consistent when 
replaying from a checkpoint. During replay the checkpoint is mmap-ed and the 
inflights are replayed into the checkpoint, then the logs are replayed from 
that point. 

Inflights are essentially events in flight during a checkpoint and need not be 
synced to disk during shutdown.
                
> Data from FileChannel will be duplicated when restarting configuration

>          Issue Type: Bug

> When Flume process was running, I changed configuration property and Flume 
> rebooted without process restarting. Events will be duplicated in next loop, 
> also has been consumed before all components have stopped. 
> I found the root cause. When FileChannel was stopping, it should save the 
> 'inflightPuts' and 'inflightTakes' into disk for preparing in next loop.
