In both cases, problem went away > immediately after one/any topic is created. > Is this a known issue? Just want to check with the community first before I > spend much time to reproduce it. > I couldn't reproduce the issue with similar setup with unit test code in > IDE. start two brokers with no topic locally on my laptop. create a > KafkaProducer object without sending any msgs. but I only tested with > 0.8.2-beta for both broker and producer. > Issue exists in 0.8.2 as well: > I have re-run my unit test with 0.8.2.0. same tight-loop problem happened > after a few mins. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
