I have compared the histories and I think Andor you are right. master: https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/commits/master branch-3.5: https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/commits/branch-3.5 Sorry I was thinking to the amount of patches related to TLS stuff , but they are not related to Netty 4. What about branch 3.4 ? We don't have reconfig but the case "Start embedded ZK, stop it and try to restart on the same port" should apply as well. Enrico > > > > Andor > > > > > > > > > > > On 2019.
