Nicolae Marasoiu commented on KAFKA-1282: ----------------------------------------- in fact, this is something that needs fixing in the producer(s) anyway, but the issue is with the currently deployed producers. One of the main reasons to go with a broker side close of the idle connections was that it is easier to redeploy brokers then producers. But if this is indeed a bug in the producer(s) as I reproduced, those producers would need redeploy. So moving this to the producer side as a configuration may again be an option on the table. > Disconnect idle socket connection in Selector > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1282 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1282 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: producer > Affects Versions: 0.8.2 > Reporter: Jun Rao > Assignee: nicu marasoiu > Labels: newbie++ > Fix For: 0.9.0 > > Attachments: 1282_brushed_up.patch, > KAFKA-1282_Disconnect_idle_socket_connection_in_Selector.patch > > > To reduce # socket connections, it would be useful for the new producer to > close socket connections that are idle.
