@easyreal I totally agree this does not fix connections disappearing, it
just prevents the worker from crashing in some situations after a connection
has gone down. There are numerous reasons why a connection can disappear. Many
of them are valid reasons, like a the worker on the other end crashed. In
those cases the goal is to provide a way to recover quickly and continue
processing with as little interruption as possible.
If you have a reproducible use case you can post where the connections are
dropped I would be very happy to help debug/fix it. However, because the
connection itself is handled by netty it may be a bug in netty, or possibly
something with the network your topology is running on. I think zeromq is more
quite about recovering lost connections.
