> 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.
