> Currently you can set
> log.retention.bytes = -1
> to disable size based retention (in fact that is the default). However, there
> is no equivalent for time based retention. You can set time based retention
> to something really big like 2147483647 hours, which in practical terms is
> forever, but it is kind of silly to require this.
