> ProducerPerformance.scala (There are two of these, one used by the shell
> script and one used by the system tests. Both exhibit this problem)
> creates messags from empty byte arrays.
> This is likely to provide unrealistically fast compression and hence
> unrealistically fast results.
> Suggest randomised bytes or more realistic sample messages are used.
> Thanks to Prabhjot Bharaj for reporting this.
