Dong Lin commented on KAFKA-2528: --------------------------------- I think this difference may be explained by the fact that ClientQuotaManger and BrokerTopicMetrics are using two difference classes, thus difference configuration and algorithm, to measure bytes-in-rate. It will be definitely a bug if the value of metric used by ClientQuotaManager ever exceeds the quota limit. However, here the throughput I used in the report is extracted using bytesInRate in BrokerTopicMetrics. Also note that the 1MB is a small absolute difference. As the quota and throughput increases, the relative difference gets smaller, as we may observe in other experiments. > Quota Performance Evaluation > ---------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2528 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Dong Lin > Assignee: Dong Lin > Attachments: QuotaPerformanceEvaluation.pdf > > > In this document we present the results of experiments we did at LinkedIn, to > validate the basic functionality of quota, as well as the performances > benefits of using quota in a heterogeneous multi-tenant environment. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
