We have seen cases with 0.8.1 when, under load, replication threads would hang up and not transfer data any longer. Restarting clears this.
I haven't found a way to monitor for this in a nice way, other than seeing partitions stay under-replicated for long periods of time. Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the TELUS network.

So I would not worry about it if it happens only once a while and goes away. Occasionally we have seen under replicated topics for long time, which might be caused by ZooKeeper session problem as indicated by such log messages: [info] I wrote this conflicted ephemeral node [{"jmx_port":-1,"timestamp":" 1418688028517","host":"ec2-54-75-33-226.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com ","version":1,"port":7101}] at /brokers/ids/0 a while back in a different session, hence I will backoff for this node to be deleted by Zookeeper and retry Typically restarting the Kafka process on such brokers will fix the problem.
