Steve Morin commented on KAFKA-156:
-----------------------------------
Scott Carey - completely agree with your use-case here. The ability todo
rolling restarts and have processes spill to disk when there is outages so that
we can in some-case withstand hours in stead of minutes in the case of a
failure of the cluster or a strange network outage.
> Messages should not be dropped when brokers are unavailable
