Maxim Vladimirskiy commented on KAFKA-3000:
-------------------------------------------
After I set log.cleaner.enable=true the size of the __consumer_offsets started
to go down rapidly. Thanks a lot Grant. And you should definitely remove this
option all together, it does not make sense to have a cleaner disabled. If a
user neither has compacted topics nor using offset management it should not be
a huge performance hit to have an idle cleaner sticking around, unless you
screwed up implementing it a big time, just joking :). Keep up the good work.
Kafka is great!

> Old segments of the __consumer_offsets topic seem to be never deleted. As of
> Dec 16, 2015, there are segments dating back to when we started use Kafka -
> Oct 26, 2015. However the idx for the respective oldest segment file is just
> about an hour fresh. All offset related settings are default.
