Hi Lianet
Can i pick this ?
> Async consumer fetch intermittent delays on console consumer
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-19259
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-19259
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: clients, consumer
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0
> Reporter: Lianet Magrans
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.1.0
>
>
> We noticed that fetching with the kafka-console-consumer.sh tool using the
> new consumer shows some intermittent delays, that are not seen when running
> the same with the classic consumer. Note that I disabled auto-commit to
> isolate the delay, and from a first look seems to come from the
> fetchBuffer.awaitNonEmpty logic, that alternatively takes almost the full
> poll timeout (runs "fast", then "slow", and continues to alternate)
> [https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0b81d6c7802c1be55dc823ce51729f2c6a6071a7/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/consumer/internals/AsyncKafkaConsumer.java#L1808]
>
> The difference in behaviour between the 2 consumers can be seen with this
> setup:
> * topic with 6 partitions (I tried with 1 partition first and didn't see the
> delay, then with 3 and 6 I could see it)
> * data populated in topic with producer sending generated uuids to the topic
> in while loop
> * run console consumer (asycn) no commit:
> bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --topic t1 --bootstrap-server localhost:9092
> --consumer-property group.protocol=consumer --group cg1 --consumer-property
> enable.auto.commit=false
> Here we can notice the pattern that looks like batches, and custom logs on
> the awaitNonEmpty show it take the full poll timeout on alternate poll
> iterations.
> * run same but for classic consumer (consumer-property
> group.protocol=classic) -> not such pattern of intermittent delays
> This needs more investigation to fully understand if it's indeed something in
> the fetch path or something else)
