Version

2.10.5

Minimal reproduce step

1. Start 3 brokers and create some topics
2. Start producing and consuming for all these topics
3. Enable load balance with Uniformloadshedder:
   • loadBalancerMsgThroughputMultiplierDifferenceShedderThreshold=1.1
   • loadBalancerMsgRateDifferenceShedderThreshold=0, means disable msgRate based shedding
4. Use the default loadBalancerLoadPlacementStrategy org.apache.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.impl.LeastLongTermMessageRate
5. Restart brokers several times to trigger the load balance
6. There is a chance to see brokers can't reach the balanced state for long time.

What did you expect to see?

All brokers should reach a balanced state after rounds of shedding.

What did you see instead?

Brokers may stay in an un-balanced state for a long time.

Anything else?
