在做分布式编译的时候，每一个worker都有一个consumer，适用的kafka+zookeep的配置都是默认的配置，在消息比较少的情况下，每一个consumer都能均匀得到互不相同的消息，但是当消息比较多的时候，这个时候consumer就有重复消费的情况。

如何排查这种问题呢？

最开始以为是系统资源的瓶颈，编译worker和kafka cluster都在一个集群上，导致消息同步不及时，所以就另外找了几个机器，kafka和编译worker分开。但是还是会遇到上述问题。

然后就想集群环境一致性最重要的一个条件是时间，然后将所有的机器都设置了统一的时间服务器，结果还是不行。

最后查看自己写的代码，将缓存队列开大一些，竟然没有重复了。

心想可能是自己使用的方式有点问题：下面是分析的过程

 1: 分析重复的情况是什么？是由于不同hosts上重复的消费，还是相同hosts上的重复消费？

　　经过对比测试，是属于相同hosts上的重复消费，间隔大概为20个message

  2: kafka的消息队列模型是什么？

  • 一个topic: tizen-unified
  • 三个partition:0,1,2
  • 一个producer, 三个consumer。
  • 每个consumer 端设置一个缓存队列，当队列满的时候，consumer线程进入阻塞的状态，这个时候编译进程从队列中取package进行编译，直到队列为空为止。

如下是consumer端的代码：

#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim: ai ts=4 sts=4 et sw=4

        def __init__(self):

                        self.consumers[i].join()
wp = WorkerPool()
wp.start()
print "Done"

当前的改进思路是：扩大WorkerPool.taskQueue的容量，当一次poll就获取足够多的message，然后consumer慢慢处理。

还有一种改进思路是：去掉producer，直接在每一个consumer中间创建一个connection, 把互斥的任务交给kafka去做。待测试。
