Segments generally are typically significantly larger than the fetch response
size, so it's usually not an issue.

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Tommy Becker
> Priority: Major
>
> As noted in KAFKA-5443, The V2 message format preserves a batch's lastOffset
> even if that offset gets removed due to log compaction. If a pre-0.11
> consumer seeks to such an offset and issues a fetch, it will get an empty
> batch, since offsets prior to the requested one are filtered out during
> down-conversion. KAFKA-5443 added consumer-side logic to advance the fetch
> offset in this case, but this leaves old consumers unable to consume these
> topics.
> The exact behavior varies depending on consumer version. The 0.10.0.0
> consumer throws RecordTooLargeException and dies, believing that the record
> must not have been returned because it was too large. The 0.10.1.0 consumer
> simply spins fetching the same empty batch over and over.
