Hey Litao, Thanks for the KIP. I have one quick comment before you provide more detail on how to select the leader with the largest LEO.
Do you think it would make sense to change the default behavior of acks=-1, such that broker will acknowledge the message once the message has been replicated to min.insync.replicas brokers? This would allow us to keep the same durability guarantee, improve produce request latency without having a new config.
