Hi Radai & Jason, Thanks for the support and suggestion.
1. I think ratio is a good additional metric since the current proposed metrics are only absolute times which may not be useful in all scenarios. I have added this to the KIP: * - poll-idle-ratio*: The fraction of time the consumer spent waiting for the user to process records from poll. Thoughts on the metric name/description? 2. Would it be useful to include a metric measuring the time since poll was last called? Similar to *heartbeat-last-seconds-ago*, it would be *poll-last-ms-ago. *This could be useful if (1) the user has a very high *max.poll.interval.ms <http://max.poll.interval.ms>* configured and typically spends a long time processing, or (2) comparing this metric with others such as *heartbeat-last-seconds-ago* or something else for gathering data in root cause analyses (or identifying potential consumer bugs related to poll).
