Sax > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > > Within {{StreamPartitionAssignor#assign}} we create new topics and afterwards > wait in an "infinite loop" until topic metadata propagated throughout the > cluster. We do this, to make sure topics are available when we start > processing. > However, with this approach we "extend" the time in the rebalance phase and > thus are not responsive (no calls to `poll` for liveness check and > {{KafkaStreams#close}} suffers). Thus, we might want to remove this check and > handle potential "topic not found" exceptions in the main thread gracefully. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
