@olegz @ijokarumawak I don't think "Queue Buffering Max Time" is working
properly. I was getting super poor performance out of PutKafka and couldn't
understand why it would take ~5 seconds for a single message to be sent. I then
found this property and when I adjusted it lower it fixed my performance
problems (and higher according made it worse).
Looking at the property descriptor and corresponding property in Kafka
([seach for "linger.ms"](http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html)), I would
expect it to batch multiple flowfiles but instead it just hung and only
processed one flowfile per batch. Below are a couple screenshots of the
configuration and the stats of running 3 node cluster (saw the saw phenomenon
running primary node only and the scheduling period was "0 secs"):


> State management for processors whose states are managed externally

>
> Inherently by the nature of a given processor it may involve state managed by
> itself (using nifi state management), or can be managed by some external
> service it interacts with (kafka's offset), and theoretically some might have
> both going on. With the new state management, we're giving users a way to
> reset state managed by nifi for a given processor. But it doesnt apply to
> those processors who have external state.
> we should consider offering a way to reset state that allows a processor to
> call out to whatever external store it impacts
