Maximum and minimum values are somewhat arbitrarily chosen, though:
segmentHours
(instead ofsegmentMs
) should never be so small so that it can spawn a gazillion segments and take down the brokers due to a large amount of open files and memory usage, so we've set a value of 1 hour as a reasonble minimum.maxMessageBytes
should ideally never be increased beyond the defaults, though some users deem it necessary in certain cases. We've set the maximum value to 5 mebibytes for now, though we should strongly recommend using other techonologies or patterns (e.g. claim-check) if our users keep asking to increase this value in the future.
