Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-1660:
----------------------------------
Gotcha, so if I understand close(time) is effectively tryClose(time) and
attempts to close and then gives up if it can't, and abort is effectively
forceClose() and forcefully kills the I/O thread.
> Ability to call close() with a timeout on the Java Kafka Producer.

> Key: KAFKA-1660
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1660
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: clients, producer
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2

> Fix For: 0.8.2

>
> I would like the ability to call {{close}} with a timeout on the Java
> Client's KafkaProducer.
> h6. Workaround
> Currently, it is possible to ensure that {{close}} will return quickly by
> first doing a {{future.get(timeout)}} on the last future produced on each
> partition, but this means that the user has to define the partitions up front
> at the time of {{send}} and track the returned {{future}}'s
