librdkafka (0.11.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium librdkafka 0.11.3 introduced the following default configuration changes: o queue.buffering.max.kbytes The default value of queue.buffering.max.kbytes was changed from 4000000kB to 1048576kB (1GB). o queued.max.messages.kbytes The default value of queued.max.messages.kbytes was changed from 1000000kB to 1048576kB (1GB). -- Mpampis Kostas Tue, 12 Dec 2017 16:29:38 +0200 librdkafka (0.11.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium librdkafka 0.11.0 introduced a number of default configuration changes that might affect its usage: o api.version.request The api.version.request property default value has changed from false to true, meaning that librdkafka will make use of the latest protocol features of the broker without the need to set the property to true explicitly on the client. WARNING: Due to a bug in Apache Kafka 0.9.0.x, the ApiVersionRequest (as sent by the client when connecting to the broker) will be silently ignored by the broker causing the request to time out after 10 seconds. This causes client-broker connections to stall for 10 seconds during connection-setup before librdkafka falls back on the broker.version.fallback protocol features. The workaround is to explicitly configure api.version.request to false on clients communicating with <0.9.0.x brokers. o Producer The default value of queue.buffering.max.ms was changed from 1000ms to 0ms (no delay). This property denotes the internal buffering time (and latency) for messages produced. -- Christos Trochalakis Thu, 20 Jul 2017 15:27:15 +0300
