huxi commented on KAFKA-4386:
-----------------------------
In my understanding, these metrics are all request-level. Take request latency
as example, it measure the average time of request latency, which is the
difference between the response received time and request creation time. As
for the multiple producers, each producer has its own client id, and in turn
has its own measure.

> Key: KAFKA-4386
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4386
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: producer
> Reporter: Pratik kumar
> Labels: producer
>
> Context :
> Kafka Producer 0.8.x
> Problem:
> Kafka Producer emits metrics regarding request size stats, request latency
> and request rate stats.
> But the inherent meaning of the these metrics are not clear. What does this
> measure?
> Is for each producer send request(which contains batches of messages per
> broker)? OR Is it for a batch of messages defined according to user batching
> policy? What happens when some application code has multiple async producers
> to increase performance (how are rate and percentiles measured?)?
