Description

• Make the send / receive socket buffer size configurable in server.

• KafkaConfig.scala already has the following existing variables to support send / receive buffer:
  socketSendBuffer
  socketReceiveBuffer

• The patch attached to this ticket will read the following existing settings in <kafka>/config/server.properties and set the corresponding socket buffers
  . . .

1. The send buffer (SO_SNDBUF) used by the socket server
   socket.send.buffer=1048576
2. The receive buffer (SO_RCVBUF) used by the socket server
   socket.receive.buffer=1048576
