Matthias Bechtold edited comment on KAFKA-4424 at 11/23/16 4:50 PM: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for your feedback, I can totally see your point. So I did some tests concerning the *producer* throughput, using JMH: https://github.com/MatthiasBechtold/kafka-throughput-test I think performance somewhat varies based on test envrionment/method. Anyways I experienced a small performance gain after 500 seconds warmup (between 0.26% - 5.5%) , which is of course somewhat greater in warmup phase (this also helps, doesn't it?). This is not an end-to-end test as proposed, but I did not figure out how to quickly implement such test. This test should also provide at least some evidence towards possible performance gains. was (Author: matthiasbechtold): Thank you for your feedback, I can totally see your point.

But architecture-wise final serialization classes > make the most sense to me. > So what do you think? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
