David Arthur commented on KAFKA-665:
------------------------------------
Maybe RequestChannel.sendRequest and RequestChannel.requestQueue should have a
timeout instead of blocking forever?
> Outgoing responses delayed on a busy Kafka broker

> In a long running test, I observed that after a few hours of operation, few
> requests start timing out, mainly because they spent very long time sitting
> in the response queue -

> We might have a problem in the way we process outgoing responses. Basically,
> if the processor thread blocks on enqueuing requests in the request queue, it
> doesn't come around to processing its responses which are ready to go out.
