-----------------------------------
Summary: KafkaAdminClient#describeTopics always goes through the
controller
Key: KAFKA-8962
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8962
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Dhruvil Shah
KafkaAdminClient#describeTopic makes a MetadataRequest against the controller.
We should consider routing the request to any broker in the cluster using
`LeastLoadedNodeProvider` instead, so that we don't overwhelm the controller
with these requests.
