+##
+## Consumer Caching
+##
+##	Kafka expects live connections from the consumer to the broker, which
+##	obviously doesn't work over connectionless HTTP requests. The Cambria
+##	server proxies HTTP requests into Kafka consumer sessions that are kept
+##	around for later re-use. Not doing so is costly for setup per request,
+##	which would substantially impact a high volume consumer's performance.
+##
+##	This complicates Cambria server failover, because we often need server
+##	A to close its connection before server B brings up the replacement.
+##
+
+## The consumer cache is normally enabled.
+#cambria.consumer.cache.enabled=true
+
+## Cached consumers are cleaned up after a period of disuse. The server inspects
+## consumers every sweepFreqSeconds and will clean up any connections that are
+## dormant for touchFreqMs.
+#cambria.consumer.cache.sweepFreqSeconds=15
+#cambria.consumer.cache.touchFreqMs=120000
+
+## The cache is managed through ZK. The default value for the ZK connection
+## string is the same as config.zk.servers.
+#cambria.consumer.cache.zkConnect=${config.zk.servers}
+
+##
+## Shared cache information is associated with this node's name. The default
+## name is the hostname plus the HTTP service port this host runs on. (The
+## hostname is determined via InetAddress.getLocalHost ().getCanonicalHostName(),
+## which is not always adequate.) You can set this value explicitly here.
+##
+#cambria.api.node.identifier=<use-something-unique-to-this-instance>
