At the same time, there were > new members that were trying to join the group for the first time. The > request timeout was significantly lower than the rebalance timeout, so the > JoinGroup of the new members kept timing out. The timeout caused a retry and > the group size eventually become quite large because we could not detect the > fact that the new members were no longer there.``` > Since many disorganized join group requests are spamming the group metadata, > we should define a cap on broker side to avoid one consumer group from > growing too large. So far I feel it's appropriate to introduce this as a > server config since most times this value is only dealing with error > scenarios, client users shouldn't worry about this config. > KIP-389: > [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-389%3A+Introduce+a+configurable+consumer+group+size+limit] > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
