Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-1567:
--------------------------------
Joel,
We thought about that. The issue is that (1) the metrics are at different
levels and we have to pass the metrics registry around in many places; (2) some
of the metrics in the fetcher are shared btw the consumer and the broker.
> Metric memory leaking after closing the clients
