Neha Narkhede updated KAFKA-598: -------------------------------- Labels: p4 (was: ) > decouple fetch size from max message size > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-598 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-598 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Jun Rao > Assignee: Joel Koshy > Priority: Blocker > Labels: p4 > Attachments: KAFKA-598-v1.patch, KAFKA-598-v2.patch, > KAFKA-598-v3.patch > > > Currently, a consumer has to set fetch size larger than the max message size. > This increases the memory footprint on the consumer, especially when a large > number of topic/partition is subscribed. By decoupling the fetch size from > max message size, we can use a smaller fetch size for normal consumption and > when hitting a large message (hopefully rare), we automatically increase > fetch size to max message size temporarily. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
