Hello -- I can look the at the code too, but how does this setting interact with compression? After all, a Producer doing compression doesn't know the size of a "message" on the wire it will send to a Kafka broker until after it has been compressed. And after it has been compressed, what if it is greater than the configured value? Or perhaps it applies to the "message" pre-compression? Thanks, Philip
