-------------------------------------------------------
This issue can be tickled on a multi-broker configuration by having brokers
advertise host names that do not exist. (Say for example you're running Kafka
in docker containers with custom hostnames :-)

> Key: KAFKA-1461
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1461
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: replication
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
> Reporter: Sam Meder
> Assignee: Sriharsha Chintalapani
> Labels: newbie++
> Fix For: 0.8.3
>
>
> The current replica fetcher thread will retry in a tight loop if any error
> occurs during the fetch call. For example, we've seen cases where the fetch
> continuously throws a connection refused exception leading to several replica
> fetcher threads that spin in a pretty tight loop.
> To a much lesser degree this is also an issue in the consumer fetcher thread,
> although the fact that erroring partitions are removed so a leader can be
> re-discovered helps some.
