--------------------------------------
Summary: Use virtual threads to publish Kafka records
Key: KAFKA-14606
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14606
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: producer
Reporter: Bart De Neuter
Since JDK 19, virtual threads have been added to the JDK as a preview:
[https://openjdk.org/jeps/425]
Virtual threads allows you to use the hardware optimal as it is a lightweight
thread that runs on a carrier thread (OS thread). When IO happens, the carrier
thread is not blocked and can continue doing other work. Currently it doesn't
seem to be possible to make
`org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.internals.Sender` run on a virtual thread.
An instance of `org.apache.kafka.common.utils.KafkaThread` is being started.
Is it possible to give the possibility to use virtual threads for publishing
records?
