It won't roll on the day boundary though, is that right?

> Affects Versions: 0.92.1
> Reporter: Himanshu Vashishtha
> Assignee: Himanshu Vashishtha
>
> The current default log4j policy is to use Daily Rolling File Appender
> (DRFA). At times, its good to have a cap on the maximum size of the logs in
> order to limit its disk usage. Here is a proposal to set a new file appemder
> (RFA) as the default appender. It can be configured via env so that existing
> tools can use the current behavior of using DRFA instead.
> This is in parallel with jira Hadoop-8149.
