Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-168:
-------------------------------
It's possible to specify the consumer id in ConsumerConfig. Not sure if that's
the right approach though.

> There are some use-cases where it makes sense to co-locate brokers and
> consumer processes. In this case it would be nice to optimize the assignment
> of partitions to consumers so that the consumer preferentially consumes from
> the broker with which it is co-located.
> If we are going to do KAFKA-167, moving the assignment to the broker, it
> would make sense to do that first so we only have to change the logic in one
> place.
