[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-45) Broker startup, leader election, becoming a leader/follower for intra-cluster replication

["Jay Kreps (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-45?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13226523#comment-13226523 ] 

Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-45:
--------------------------------

I think we are overthinking this. Currently cleanup is not a precise SLA, it is just a guarantee of the form "we will never delete anything younger than X OR we will always maintain at least Y bytes of messages". Trying to maintain this in synchronous form across nodes is overkill I think. It is fine if every node acts independently as long as each of them respects the SLA. I think this should be much simpler and more likely to work.
