ASF GitHub Bot commented on KAFKA-4429: --------------------------------------- Github user asfgit closed the pull request at: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/2155 > records-lag should be zero if FetchResponse is empty > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-4429 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4429 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Dong Lin > Assignee: Dong Lin > Fix For: 0.10.2.0 > > > In Fetcher we record records-lag in terms of number of records for any > partition. Currently this metric value is updated only if number of parsed > records is not empty. This means that if consumer has already fully caught up > and there is no new data into the topic, this metric's value will be negative > infinity and users can not rely on this metric to know if their consumer has > caught up. > We can fix this problem by assuming the lag is zero is FetchResponse is empty. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
