> The documentation of all Kafka processors (publish and consume) does contain
> the following warning:
> {quote}Please note there are cases where the publisher can get into an
> indefinite stuck state. We are closely monitoring how this evolves in the
> Kafka community and will take advantage of those fixes as soon as we can. In
> the meantime it is possible to enter states where the only resolution will be
> to restart the JVM NiFi runs on.{quote}
> Based on a conversation on the dev mailing list, Joe Witt stated that this
> warning is not needed anymore for processors targeting Kafka 0_10 and beyond:
> {quote}It was there previously because it
> was observed that timeout conditions could cause threads to stay in a
> hung state and as the caller of the client we weren't in a position to
> resolve it. However, newer client libraries are better and I no
> longer have observed these issues personally. For the 0_10 or newer
> clients I think we can adjust the docs to indicate that these should
> work just fine.{quote}
