> The broker depends on receiving a list of *all* partitions from the
> controller on startup. It uses this information to create a list of
> partitions that will get check pointed to the high watermark checkpoint file.
> However, during a make follower operation, it adds a partition to the high
> watermark checkpoint list only if its leader is alive. Due to this, even if
> the controller sends a full list of partitions to the broker, replica manager
> filters it to keep only those partitions whose leader is alive. This leads to
> the high watermark value for the rest of those partitions to reset to 0.
> Which, in turn, leads to the follower to fetch from the beginning of leader's
> log instead of min(log end offset, high watermark). The effect of this is
> very long lag on the replica fetchers leading to high under replicated
> partition count
