Major Description
My Colleague Weichu already sent out a mail to kafka user mailing list regarding this issue, but we think it's worth having a ticket tracking it.
We are using Kafka Streams with exactly-once enabled on a Kafka cluster for
a while.
Recently we found that the size of __consumer_offsets partitions grew huge.
Some partition went over 30G. This caused Kafka to take quite long to load
"__consumer_offsets" topic on startup (it loads the topic in order to
become group coordinator).
We dumped the __consumer_offsets segments and found that while normal
offset commits are nicely compacted, transaction records (COMMIT, etc) are
all preserved. Looks like that since these messages don't have a key, the
LogCleaner is keeping them all:
----------

----------
Streams is doing transaction commits per 100ms (commit.interval.ms=100 when
exactly-once) so the __consumer_offsets is growing really fast.
Is this (to keep all transactions) by design, or is that a bug for
LogCleaner? What would be the way to clean up the topic?
