Steven Zhen Wu commented on KAFKA-1919:
---------------------------------------
this does happen with 0.8.2.0 server. In my local unit test, both producer and
server are 0.8.2.0.
[~jkreps] will try the patch later this week.
> Metadata request issued with no backoff in new producer if there are no topics

> Key: KAFKA-1919
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1919
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2
> Reporter: Jay Kreps
> Attachments: KAFKA-1919-v1.patch
>
>
> Original report:
> We have observed high cpu and high network traffic problem when
> 1) cluster (0.8.1.1) has no topic
> 2) KafkaProducer (0.8.2-beta) object is created without sending any traffic
> We have observed such problem twice. In both cases, problem went away
> immediately after one/any topic is created.
> Is this a known issue? Just want to check with the community first before I
> spend much time to reproduce it.
> I couldn't reproduce the issue with similar setup with unit test code in
> IDE. start two brokers with no topic locally on my laptop. create a
> KafkaProducer object without sending any msgs. but I only tested with
> 0.8.2-beta for both broker and producer.
> Issue exists in 0.8.2 as well:
> I have re-run my unit test with 0.8.2.0. same tight-loop problem happened
> after a few mins.
