                    Hi Yumin --<br>
                    <br>
                  </div>
                  Somewhat orthogonal to the discussion at hand, and
                  certainly not a code review/discussion (so i<br>
                  apologize for injecting this into $SUBJ) but I wanted
                  to say that log rotation is definitely a useful
                  capability in the field.<br>
                </div>
                <br>
              </div>
              Have you folks perhaps considered two possible
              enhancements:<br>
            </div>
            (1) rotate logs at a frequency and time specified. (For
            example, on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.)<br>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    No such consideration at present.  This  needs an option for
    specifying the frequency.<br>

    I can file a bug for serviceability to have this function together

                 This is for a enhancement to add head/tail message to
              the logging files to assist reading GC output.<br>
                 1. modified prompt message if invalid arguments used
              for log rotating;<br>
                 2. add time and file name message to log file

                 3. for easily identify which log file is current, use
