Walter Hernandez commented on KAFKA-2499:
-----------------------------------------
After researching, KAFKA-6921 removed all Scala related code and tests
regarding the ProducerPerformance.*code.
Tickets that were referenced are about modifying the Producer Performance tests
payloads, but are no longer relevant to any supported code base.
This leads me to closing this ticket, and beginning cleaning up older open
tickets regarding this feature enhancement.
> kafka-producer-perf-test should use something more realistic than empty byte

> ProducerPerformance.scala (There are two of these, one used by the shell
> script and one used by the system tests. Both exhibit this problem)
> creates messags from empty byte arrays.
> This is likely to provide unrealistically fast compression and hence
> unrealistically fast results.
> Suggest randomised bytes or more realistic sample messages are used.
> Thanks to Prabhjot Bharaj for reporting this.
