Oleg Golovin commented on KAFKA-1414:
-------------------------------------
I see only one problem here. If we disperse threads among directories, there
will be one directory in the end (presumably the biggest one) where all the
threads will go. When it happens, such number of threads will only aggravate
performance for spinning drives, as it will results in more disk head seeks
(though the OS will try to optimize those reads, I think seeks will not be
avoided).
Maybe we would rather have a separate thread pool for each directory, with the
{{number of threads = log.io.parallelism / number_of_directories}}?

> After hard reset due to power failure broker takes way too much time
> recovering unflushed segments in a single thread. This could be easiliy
> improved launching multiple threads (one per data dirrectory, assuming that
> typically each data directory is on a dedicated drive). Localy we trie this
> simple patch to LogManager.loadLogs and it seems to work, however I'm too new
