Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-475:
-------------------------------
1. Yes, adding a topic level log retention size will be useful.
3. Yes, we can make timeOfCreation and Option. Initially, it will be none. It
becomes a non-empty value on next append.
4. It doesn't seem that rolling logs are interfering with log cleanup. So,
removing those tests should be fine.
