Jason Rosenberg commented on KAFKA-998:
---------------------------------------
[~fancyrao]
I'd love to see this in 0.8. For a message too large exception, which gets
returned to the producer client currently as a FailedToSendMessageException,
it's indistinguishable from any other kind of exception, for which sub-dividing
the batch and retrying are not viable options.
The workaround described is not workable, in practice since the FTSME does not
include any root cause information (a simple causedBy() method might help in
that regard)!

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.8, 0.8.1
> Reporter: Joel Koshy
> Assignee: Guozhang Wang
> Attachments: KAFKA-998.v1.patch

>
> Based on a discussion with Guozhang. The producer currently retries on all
> error codes (including messagesizetoolarge which is pointless to retry on).
> This can slow down the producer unnecessarily.
> If at all we want to retry on that error code we would need to retry with a
> smaller batch size, but that's a separate discussion.
