Ksolves India Limited commented on KAFKA-6939: ---------------------------------------------- The configuration [log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms|http://log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms/] has been deprecated. As per [KIP-937|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-937%3A+Improve+Message+Timestamp+Validation], two new configurations, [log.message.timestamp.before.max.ms|http://log.message.timestamp.before.max.ms/] and [log.message.timestamp.after.max.ms|http://log.message.timestamp.after.max.ms/], have been introduced to replace it. We may make the change for the previous versions but the config will be removed from future versions. But I guess we can skip this change. Thoughhts? > Change the default of log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms to 500 years > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-6939 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6939 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: log > Reporter: Badai Aqrandista > Priority: Minor > > If producer incorrectly provides timestamp in microsecond (not in > millisecond), the record is accepted by default and can cause broker to roll > the segment files continuously. And on a heavily used broker, this will > generate a lot of index files, which then causes the broker to hit > `vm.max_map_count`. > So I'd like to suggest changing the default for > log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms to 15768000000000 (500 years * 365 > days * 86400 seconds * 1000). This would reject timestamp in microsecond from > producer and still allow most historical data to be stored in Kafka. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
