What version of storm are you using? In older versions of storm the timeout check was done once every topology.message.timeout.secs. So that means nothing will timeout sooner than topology.message.timeout.secs, but could in the worst case be almost 2x that. If I remember correctly that in newer versions of storm we have adjusted it to check more frequently, but I don't know the JIRA off the top of my head.

I am measuring the latency of the topology using timestamps in ack() and fail() methods. Observations:-------------------------------------ack() - latency ~ 100ms fail() - latency ~ 15000ms. I have set topology.message.timeout.secs to 10. Which means there is a timeout of 10s before fail is called. But, 15000 - 10000 = 5000ms (which is still a large value). 1. What are the reasons for such high latency before calling fail() ? 2. What other time factors contribute to latency apart from timeout? Any ideas? Thanks,Preethini
