rabbah opened a new issue #234: requeue messages to kafka if subject is throttled
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-package-kafka/issues/234
 
 
   the provider today will retry post requests when the subject is throttled.
   this is limited however (6 retries, and on the order of a few minutes), after which the message is dropped if it's not posted successfully.
   
   the retry period is too short.
   more over it is generally better to requeue the messages rather than dropping them entirely.
   there already is no ordering guarantee so it requeue is no worse in that regard. it would also naturally extend the retry to longer periods.
