I have a kafka cluster where user "Alice" has 50 consumer groups. The consumers all have different fetch rates across the groups. I'd like to understand how to precisely set the request rate quota.
KIP-124 seems to tell me that there is a metric "request-time", but I don't see it when I curl a kafka broker process for the metrics. Is there a metric that as an administrator allows me to precisely set a request quota? """ Two new metrics and corresponding sensors will be added to the broker for tracking request-time and throttle-time of each quota entity for the new quota type *Request.* These will be handled similar to the metrics and sensors for* Produce/Fetch.* A delay queue sensor with queue-size for the new quota type *Request* will also be added similar to the delay queue sensor for *Produce/Fetch*. All the metrics and sensors for request time throttling will be of similar format to the existing produce/fetch metrics and sensors for consistency, but with new group/name indicating the new quota type *Request, *keeping these separate from existing metrics/sensors.
