-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Rename Accumulo's "Garbage Collector" to something less confusing
                 Key: ACCUMULO-1623
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1623
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 1.7.0


Documentation and discussions about Accumulo's utility to clean up unused files in HDFS can get a bit confusing, especially for Accumulo newbies. This is particularly problematic when one needs to discuss things like the Java garbage collection trigger the Accumulo garbage collector does each collection cycle to minimize memory usage and continue to collect candidates for deletion.

Proposals:

# Sweeper (accumulo-sweeper)
# Cleanup (accumulo-cleanup)
# ?
