Nir Barel commented on KAFKA-7782:
----------------------------------

Hi,

currently compact policy is not working on windows and therefore we use delete 
policy

can you elaborate more why running with delete policy isn’t good? 

> cleanup policy for offsets topic should be configurable

> Hi,
> For offsets topic there is no option to change the log cleanup policy from 
> compact to delete because it is set hard-coded in code here:
> [https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/core/src/main/scala/kafka/coordinator/group/GroupCoordinator.scala#L68]
> The only way to override it is to alter the topic at runtime which required 
> to check the settings and set it after every restart of Kafka.
> I am suggesting to configure it via properties with a default value of 
> "compact"
