Guozhang Wang commented on KAFKA-2515: -------------------------------------- I have verified following the above steps that with this patch oversided messages will cause an error message; and since we keep retrying it will iteratively log error messages until users shut it down. My question is do we want to close the consumer actively upon encountering this issue moving forward? > handle oversized messages properly in new consumer > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2515 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2515 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: clients > Reporter: Jun Rao > Assignee: Jason Gustafson > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.9.0.0 > > > When there is an oversized message in the broker, it seems that the new > consumer just silently gets stuck. We should at least log an error when this > happens. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
