             Summary: Document whether the remote data cache has TTL
                 Key: IMPALA-12491
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-12491
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Documentation
            Reporter: Quanlong Huang


It's unclear to the users whether the remote data cache has TTL so will expire 
after some time. We have document about the startup flags of remote data cache, 
including the capacity and the eviction policy:
[https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_data_cache.html]

We should also mention that the cache item won't expire as long as the same 
file metadata is used in the query. The reason is that the cache key is 
(filename, mtime, file offset) where mtime is the last modified time of the 
file. When the mtime in the file metadata doesn't change, the scan request 
could always hit the cache (if capacity is enough).
