Hello,
we now understand the recently reported memory leak bug in Kafka Streams
4.1.0, and have a PR to fix it.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-19748
I consider this bug severe, as we expect that it affects a large number
of Kafka Streams user, makes Kafka Streams unusable, and there is no
workaround.
So I would like to propose to start 4.1.1 bug-fix release immediately,
and also update the Kafka web page with a note that people should be
careful and maybe not even upgrade to Kafka Streams 4.1.0.
Looking forward to your feedback.
-Matthias
