Neha Narkhede commented on KAFKA-806: ------------------------------------- [~junrao] Do we still need this? > Index may not always observe log.index.interval.bytes > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-806 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-806 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: log > Reporter: Jun Rao > > Currently, each log.append() will add at most 1 index entry, even when the > appended data is larger than log.index.interval.bytes. One potential issue is > that if a follower restarts after being down for a long time, it may fetch > data much bigger than log.index.interval.bytes at a time. This means that > fewer index entries are created, which can increase the fetch time from the > consumers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
