--------------------------------------
Summary: ProducerPerformance.java : Add support to supply custom
message payloads.
Key: KAFKA-4432
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4432
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sandesh Karkera
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.10.0.2
Currently, kafka-producer-perf-test.sh does not support supplying custom
payloads to read messages from. The payload generated is a static payload which
is not very useful when testing features like compression.
We can improve the ProducerPerformance.java to accept a "--payload-file" and
"--payload-delimiter"(optional) parameters instead of "--record-size". This
will enable to user to run performance tests using custom payloads.
Before every send, we'll pick up a random payload from the payload-file
provided.
--payload-file: Will consists of messages delimited by "--payload-delimiter".
--payload-delimiter: Takes a default value of "\n" if not specified.
