This means that if > a rebalance occurs in the poll, it's feasible to get data that doesn't match > a request to change offsets during the rebalance. I think the consumer will > hold on to consumer data across the rebalance if it is reassigned the same > offset, so there may already be data ready to be delivered. Additionally we > may already have data in an incomplete messageBatch that should be discarded > when the rewind is requested. > While connectors that care about this (i.e. ones that manage their own > offsets) can handle this correctly by tracking the offsets they're expecting > to see, it's a hassle, error prone, an pretty unintuitive. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
