> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: consumer

>
> Currently the coordinator removes the group (i.e. both removing it from the
> cache and writing the tombstone message on its local replica without waiting
> for ack) once it becomes an empty group.
> This can lead to a few issues such as 1) group removal and creation churns
> when a group with very few members are being rebalanced, 2) if the local
> write is failed / not propagated to other followers, they can only be removed
> again when a new coordinator is migrated and detects the group has no members
> already.
> We could instead piggy-back the periodic offset expiration along with the
> group purging as well which removes any groups that had no members already.
