If you set `loadBalancerBrokerThresholdShedderPercentage` to `10`, then only broker1's certain bundles get unloaded, because the average usage of broker1 is greater than the sum of the cluster average usage (20%) plus `loadBalancerBrokerThresholdShedderPercentage`(10%). +However, in some special cases, the above default strategy may cause low-load machines to be idle forever. + +For example: + +There are 11 brokers, of which 10 are loaded at 80% and 1 is loaded at 0%. +The average load is 80% * 10 / 11 = 72.73%, and the threshold to unload is 72.73% + 10% = 82.73%. +Since 80% < 82.73%, unload will not be triggered, and there is one idle Broker with load of 0%. + +So, we add a new option `lowerBoundarySheddingEnabled`. +If `lowerBoundarySheddingEnabled=true`, based on the `ThresholdShedder`, a leader will make the lower boundary judgment of the load. Review Comment: ```suggestion When `lowerBoundarySheddingEnabled` is set to `true`, a leader decides the lower boundary of the load. ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
