>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: streams
>    Affects Versions: 0.10.2.1

> - there is a regression in 0.10.2.1 that impacts RocksDb's behaviour (details 
> below for first impact) from this PR: 
> https://github.com/apache/kafka/commit/f9660e16dafb9e1109704bdecb978b7046f0cc6b#diff-046ca566243518c88e007b7499ec9f51
> - worst-case impact: streams might not run out-of-box in deployments with 1 
> core only
> - workaround: no new jars needed for the workaround, only a config change 
> that changes a RocksDb parameter, e.g. something like in this PR: 
> https://github.com/confluentinc/examples/pull/117/files
> - full fix: add 1 to the current config (i.e., max cpus + 1) in the default 
> settings
> The RocksDb code might have a bug itself, since when running with one core
> it both sets the number of compaction threads to 1 
> (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/5.0.fb/util/options.cc#L762) AND 
> the maximum number of compactions variable to 0 
> (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/5.0.fb/util/options.cc#L760) which 
> doesn't make much sense. I've sent a message in RocksDb channel.
