This is nice in terms of potentially > coalescing requests to the same broker, keeping port usage reasonable, > minimizing the # of connections to brokers (which is nice for brokers, not so > important for connect itself). But it also means we unnecessarily tie tasks > to each other in other ways -- e.g. when one needs to flush, it we > effectively block it on other connector's data being produced and acked. > Given that we allocate a consumer per sink, a lot of the arguments for > sharing a producer effectively go away. We should decouple the tasks by using > a separate producer for each task (or, at a minimum, for each connector's > tasks). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
