Hi Ming,
I'm relatively new to Kafka as well but here's my understanding of it.
If anyone thinks that this is incorrect please say so.
For producers there is a queue for async producers which you can turn a
couple of knobs to control when a batch of messages gets sent to the server:
|queue.time
| |queue.size||
|
If you're using a sync producer there's no queue because it's going to
send the message right away.
Cheers,
-Xavier

Hi,
In http://incubator.apache.org/kafka/design.html, the documentation
says that ``As events enter a queue, they are buffered in a blocking
queue, until either buffer.time or batch.size is reached.``
Is "buffer.time" a configurable option on the producer client or is it
unimplemented?
I can't find anything about this in
http://incubator.apache.org/kafka/configuration.html
Thanks,
Ming Han
