Micah Whitacre reassigned CRUNCH-680:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: Micah Whitacre
> Kafka Source should split very large partitions
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CRUNCH-680
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-680
> Project: Crunch
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: IO
> Reporter: Andrew Olson
> Assignee: Micah Whitacre
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> If a single Kafka partition has a very large number of messages, the map task
> for that partition can take a long time to run leading to potential timeout
> problems. We should limit the number of messages assigned to each split so
> that the workload is more evenly balanced.
> Based on our testing we have determined that 5 million messages should be a
> generally reasonable default for the maximum split size, with a configuration
> property (org.apache.crunch.kafka.split.max) provided to optionally override
> that value.
