Hi I have created one node kafka cluster and one topic name test1. Then I started ConsoleProducer and ConsoleConsumer.Both started successfully.But what I see is in the /kafka/kafka_2.8.0-0.8.0/logs/ directory
-rw-rw-r-- 1 admin admin 5203 Jan 23 15:37 controller.log *-rw-rw-r-- 1 admin admin 2589466 Jan 23 15:45 kafka-request.log* -rw-rw-r-- 1 admin admin 2604 Jan 23 15:44 kafkaServer-gc.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 admin admin 6505 Jan 23 15:40 server.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 admin admin 2167 Jan 23 15:37 state-change.log The size of file *kafka-request.log* is continuously increasing even though I am not giving any message to producer. When I killed ConsoleConsumer and ConsoleProducer,the size of file *kafka-request.log *stopped increasing. So I want to know the reason why this is(*kafka-request.log) *is only file whose size is getting increased continuously even though no message is given to produce or no message is consumed by consumer. -- *Moniii*
