Ah, you are saying Windows does a worse job of preallocation? How much does
this help? Did you do any benchmarking on the performance improvement?

> Improve consumer read performance for Windows

> Key: KAFKA-1646
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1646
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: log
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: xueqiang wang
> Labels: newbie, patch
> Attachments: Improve consumer read performance for Windows.patch
>
>
> This patch is for Window platform only. In Windows platform, if there are
> more than one replicas writing to disk, the segment log files will not be
> consistent in disk and then consumer reading performance will be dropped down
> greatly. This fix allocates more disk spaces when rolling a new segment, and
> then it will improve the consumer reading performance in NTFS file system.
> This patch doesn't affect file allocation of other filesystems, for it only
> adds statements like 'if(Os.iswindow)' or adds methods used on Windows.
