Jungtaek Lim commented on STORM-2914:
-------------------------------------
Correction: If new model of backpressure doesn't adjust a rate but just block
calling nextTuple(), when backpressure bubbles up to spout it may encounter
same situation. New model doesn't always block spout in backpressure state, so
the chance to encounter will become much less.
> Remove enable.auto.commit support from storm-kafka-client

> The enable.auto.commit option causes the KafkaConsumer to periodically commit
> the latest offsets it has returned from poll(). It is convenient for use
> cases where messages are polled from Kafka and processed synchronously, in a
> loop.
> Due to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-2913 we'd really like to
> store some metadata in Kafka when the spout commits. This is not possible
> with enable.auto.commit. I took at look at what that setting actually does,
> and it just causes the KafkaConsumer to call commitAsync during poll (and
> during a few other operations, e.g. close and assign) with some interval.
> Ideally I'd like to get rid of ProcessingGuarantee.NONE, since I think
> ProcessingGuarantee.AT_MOST_ONCE covers the same use cases, and is likely
> almost as fast. The primary difference between them is that AT_MOST_ONCE
> commits synchronously.
> If we really want to keep ProcessingGuarantee.NONE, I think we should make
> our ProcessingGuarantee.NONE setting cause the spout to call commitAsync
> after poll, and never use the enable.auto.commit option. This allows us to
> include metadata in the commit.
