----------------------------------
Summary: Reconsider default retries for idempotent producer
Key: KAFKA-5033
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5033
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Sub-task
Reporter: Ismael Juma
Fix For: 0.11.0.0
We currently set the default to 3 if idempotence is enabled. There was a brief
discussion in the PR, but it would be good to explain this choice in more
detail. Namely, what cases are we trying to cover with this number and have we
considered the fact that with the default retry backoff of 100ms, 3 retries are
used pretty quickly.
Is there a downside in using a larger retry count?
