KIP-184 — Rename LogCleaner and related classes to LogCompactor
Discarded Broker
Proposes renaming LogCleaner and all related configuration properties (e.g., log.cleaner.enable → log.compactor.enable) to LogCompactor to match the actual log compaction semantics. The name 'cleaner' was considered misleading given that the operation is specifically log compaction, not generic log cleanup.
