Sam Meder created KAFKA-938: ------------------------------- Summary: High CPU usage when more or less idle Key: KAFKA-938 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-938 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 0.8 Reporter: Sam Meder Priority: Critical Fix For: 0.8
We've noticed Kafka using a lot of CPU in a pretty much idle environment and tracked it down to it's DelayedItem implementation. In particular, the time conversion for how much longer to wait: def getDelay(unit: TimeUnit): Long = { val elapsedMs = (SystemTime.milliseconds - createdMs) unit.convert(max(delayMs - elapsedMs, 0), unit) } does not actually convert, so Kafka ends up treating a ms value like nanoseconds, e.g. waking up every 100 ns or so. The above code should really be: def getDelay(unit: TimeUnit): Long = { val elapsedMs = (SystemTime.milliseconds - createdMs) unit.convert(max(delayMs - elapsedMs, 0), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS) } I'll attach a patch. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
