Peter Sinoros-Szabo commented on KAFKA-12431:
---------------------------------------------
We did further research and found that those Fetch Request and Responses
occasionally contain the topic/partition/offset data.
# It seems that the client sends out a Fetch Request that contains the proper
partition/offset data
# but in response it gets a response that doesn't contain any
topic/partition/offset information.
# Then the client starts to send those messages that I described above, so
there's not topic/partition/offset mentioned.
# This continues for awhile, both requests and responses are without the
topic/partition/offset data.
# A lot more messages later there is a Fetch Response that does contain the
requested topic/partition/offset/message-payload data.
# And than the whole thing start from the beginning again.

> Key: KAFKA-12431
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12431
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.6.1
> Reporter: Peter Sinoros-Szabo
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: fetch-on-2.4.1.png, fetch-on-2.6.1.png
>
>
> I was running a 6 node Kafka 2.4.1 cluster with protocol and message format
> version set to 2.4. I wanted to upgrade the cluster to 2.6.1 and after I
> upgraded the 1st broker to 2.6.1 without any configuration change, I noticed
> much higher CPU usage on that broker (instead of 25% CPU usage it was ~350%)
> and about 3-4x higher network traffic. So I dumped the traffic between the
> Kafka client and broker and compared it with the traffic of the same broker
> downgraded to 2.4.1.
> It seems to me that after I upgraded to 2.6.1, the Fetch requests and
> responses are not complete, it is missing the topics part of the Fetch
> Request, I don't know for what reason. I guess there should be always a
> topics part.
> I'll attache a screenshot from these messages.
