Andrew Or commented on SPARK-3859:
----------------------------------

The problem is we keep adding more and more of these inconsistent policies 
because there isn't really a guideline to follow. When I review other people's 
patches there isn't really the "correct" way to name a new config. We will have 
to deprecate the old ones in a nicer fashion than what we can do today, and 
this is why I opened SPARK-5933.

HOWEVER this one is duplicated by a more specific one I opened recently. I had 
forgotten that I already opened this issue a while ago. I'm closing this one in 
favor of the new one.

> Use consistent config names for duration (with units!)

> 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.
