-----------------------------------
[~hachikuji] I think I've seen this issue come up multiple times in the past.
Not sure exactly which issue numbers. Do you think this is a issue that really
needs to be tackled?
> Add a bounded flush() API to Kafka Producer
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-7711
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7711
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: producer
> Reporter: kun du
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: needs-kip
>
> Currently the call to Producer.flush() can be hang there for indeterminate
> time.
> It is a good idea to add a bounded flush() API and timeout if producer is
> unable to flush all the batch records in a limited time. In this way the
> caller of flush() has a chance to decide what to do next instead of just wait
> forever.
