Zaahir Laher commented on KAFKA-10431:
--------------------------------------
Yes, so basically the payloads from the file will be sent to the topic
sequentially from top to bottom.
> ProducerPerformance with payloadFile arg: add support for sequential or
> random outputs

> Key: KAFKA-10431
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10431
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tools
> Affects Versions: 2.5.1
> Reporter: Zaahir Laher
> Priority: Minor
>
> When using ProducerPerformance with the --payloadFile argument with a file
> with multiple payloads (i.e the default is one payload per line) , the
> ProducerPerformance randomly chooses payloads from the file.
> This could result in the same payload being sent, which may not be the
> desired result in some cases.
> It would be useful to all have another argument that allows for sequence
> payload submission if required. If left blank this arg would default to false
> (i.e default random selection).
