Description

Currently things like timeout, batch writer max mem, etc are only configurable in the API by making method calls. It would be nice if a user could pass a config file to the connector that provides default configutations for things like timeout, batch writer max memory, etc.

Since Accumulo is used on a cluster, in addition to a config file, supporting configuration profiles in zookeeper would also be nice. For example I can tell my application to use configuration profile X in zookeeper. If I do not specify a batch writer max mem, then it will look in the configuration profile in zookeeper.
