Hi all, I have created KIP-263: Allow broker to skip sanity check of inactive segments on broker startup. See https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-263%3A+Allow+broker+to+skip+sanity+check+of+inactive+segments+on+broker+startup .
This KIP provides a way to significantly reduce time to rolling bounce a Kafka cluster. Comments are welcome! Thanks, Dong
