Learn about the estimated latencies and CPU usage when agents register to the Edge Flow Manager which is integrated with Kafka to store heartbeats and acknowledge
requests.
Latencies
Latencies are a bit higher compared to when Kafka is not present, but still within the range
of 100 ms and 5 seconds.
CPU usage
CPU usage is higher as expected. As per the JVM, at the maximum level, approximately 50% of
the available CPU is used, which is 3 cores. Compared to the configuration without Kafka that
means 50% more CPU usage.
