Hi Lan, Thanks for the KIP. Decoupling these is a good idea. AS1: This is a change to the coordinator runtime and there are two concrete implementations, the group coordinator and the share coordinator. I think it would be equally valuable to have `share.coordinator.append.max.buffer.size`. The same default of 1*1024*1024 seems appropriate to me.

The original configuration name was potentially ambiguous; it has therefore been renamed to `group.coordinator.append.max.buffer.size`. chia_00: Update the vaild values of group.coordinator.append.max.buffer.size to be less than message.max.bytes. chia_01: Yes, I agree. Make this config to be updated dynamically. chia_02: I agree with you. Since the buffer behavior is a soft limit, this change should not impact any existing functionality or require special compatibility measures.
