[~becket_qin] ooh, shiny. Did I do it right?
> RoundRobinAssignor clusters by consumer
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2019
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2019
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: consumer
> Reporter: Joseph Holsten
> Assignee: Neha Narkhede
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: 0001-sort-consumer-thread-ids-by-hashcode.patch,
> KAFKA-2019.patch
>
>
> When rolling out a change today, I noticed that some of my consumers are
> "greedy", taking far more partitions than others.
> The cause is that the RoundRobinAssignor is using a list of ConsumerThreadIds
> sorted by toString, which is {{ "%s-%d".format(consumer, threadId)}}. This
> causes each consumer's threads to be adjacent to each other.
> One possible fix would be to define ConsumerThreadId.hashCode, and sort by
> that.
