-----------------------------
Summary: remove connection timeout in SyncProducer
Key: KAFKA-579
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-579
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: 0.8
Reporter: Jun Rao
Priority: Blocker
Currently, SyncProducer has a few parameters that control how long the client
should wait to establish a socket connection and how frequent the connection
should be re-established. Those parameters seem to be needed primarily for vip
on a load balancer. In 0.8, SyncProducer doesn't deal with VIP any more. So, we
probably should get rid of those parameters. One of the issues that I have seen
is that when a broker is down, SyncProducer will still wait connectionTimeout
time to try to establish a connection. This is unnecessary since the high level
producer already has the retry logic and is delaying requests like
getMetadataRequest.
