Tarush Grover commented on FLINK-9178:
--------------------------------------
[~tzulitai] Actually I had checked this `max.partition.fetch.bytes`, there
might be two ways that we can add rate control one way is by specifying number
of bytes and other is by mentioning number of events eg. `x events per fetch`.
We have the configuration `max.partition.fetch.bytes` which give the maximum
amount of data per-partition the server. Now we have to decide whether we want
to implement second way or we can go with first one.

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Kafka Connector
> Reporter: buptljy
> Assignee: Tarush Grover
> Priority: Major
>
> When I want to run the flink program from the earliest offset in Kafka, it'll
> be very easy to cause OOM if there are too much data, because of too many
> HeapMemorySegment in NetworkBufferPool.
> Maybe we should have some settings to control the rate of the receiving data?
