This sounds like you might want to run the Kafka broker on Windows. Have
a look at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1194 for possible
issues with regard to log cleaning.

We’re beginning to make use of Kafka, and it is encouraging. But there
are a couple of questions I’ve had a hard time finding answers for.
We’re using the rdkafka-dotnet client on the consumer side and it’s
straightforward as far as it goes. However, documentation seems to be
scant—the Wiki points to a FAQ which has, like, two questions neither of
which are the questions we have. And I can’t find a mailing list,
forum, blog, or other community where questions can be asked. I found
some indication in the Git repository that there may be some API docs,
but it’s not at all clear exactly where those are.
So I’m posting that question here because I can’t find anywhere else
that might be even remotely relevant to post it—where can I find out
more info about rdkafka and particularly rdkafka-dotnet, and some way to
ask questions that aren’t answered in the documentation?
And second, my current question about rdkafka-dotnet, is the example
consumers both seem to read an entire message into memory. We don’t
want to presume any particular message size, and may not want to cache
the entire message in memory while processing it. Is there an
interface where we can consume messages via a stream, so that we can
read chunks of a message and process them based on some kind of batch
size that will allow us better control over memory usage?
