Hey all,
I'm currently running Kafka 0.10.1 on Windows and am doing some perf testing. I
tried out the perf test setup described in this blog post:
https://engineering.linkedin.com/kafka/benchmarking-apache-kafka-2-million-writes-second-three-cheap-machines.
When I try "single producer thread, 3x asynchronous replication", I get about
550k records/sec which seems acceptable for the perf loss due to running on
Windows. However, when I set acks=all to try synchronous replication, I drop to
about 120k records/sec, which is a LOT worse than the numbers in the blog post.
Are there some specific settings that might cause acks=all to cause more perf
issues? My broker settings are below. Thanks!
