The value must be
memory
.The size of each buffer chunk. The default is 8m. The suffixes "k" (KB), "m" (MB), and "g" (GB) can be used. Please see the Buffer Plugin Overview article for the basic buffer structure.
The length limit of the chunk queue. Please see the Buffer Plugin Overview article for the basic buffer structure. The default limit is 64 chunks.
The interval between data flushes. The suffixes "s" (seconds), "m" (minutes), and "h" (hours) can be used
