Onur Karaman commented on KAFKA-2391: ------------------------------------- As brought up earlier, blocking for request.timeout.ms time doesn't seem like the right way to go: - if request.timeout.ms < session.timeout.ms, then a user may drop JoinGroupResponses which can arrive worst case after session.timeout.ms. - if request.timeout.ms > session.timeout.ms, then a user calling one of these blocking calls will lose their session and trigger a rebalance. > Blocking call such as position(), partitionsFor(), committed() and > listTopics() should have a timeout > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2391 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2391 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Jiangjie Qin > Assignee: Onur Karaman > > The blocking calls should have a timeout from either configuration or > parameter. So far we have position(), partitionsFor(), committed() and > listTopics(). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
