I checked the worker log files and found there is no specific exception. It 
looks the KafkaSpout just stops picking the records from kafka queue. Any 
pointers?

Thanks for the response!


·         The Storm version is 0.9.4

·         I have set a message timeout to 300 seconds.

·         Yes I also think the latency is too high. The Bolt is doing too much 
of work there. It is basically requesting documents for a User from multiple 
sources(Google Drive, Box,DropBox etc). I can split the work into 3 topologies. 
But wanted to know is latency the root cause for the hang.

I will check if the worker stacktrace can be shared.

Thanks !

Hi Nitin,

Though it decreases throughput when max spout pending value is small, it should 
not hang.
Which version of Storm do you use, and could you share stack trace of workers 
if you don't mind?

Btw, your spout latency is a bit high (10s). Which value you set message 
timeout secs?

Thanks,

Dear All,

I am facing an issue where in one of my Topology hangs after 14-16 hours.

From the Storm UI I can see the below statics:

•         Number of Records Emitted: 4000

•         Number of Records Acked : 3180

•         Number of Records Failed : 1140


•         The Spout Latency is 10913 milliseconds

•         I have configured the Max Spout Config to the Number of  Executors : 
40 in my case

•         I have only one Spout

From various blogs on this topic , I understand if the value of Max Spout 
Config is not set properly it can result in such issues.
Can someone please guide me what should the correct value in my case.

Thanks & Regards,
Nitin Gupta
