>
> In Fetcher we record records-lag in terms of number of records for any
> partition. Currently this metric value is updated only if number of parsed
> records is not empty. This means that if consumer has already fully caught up
> and there is no new data into the topic, this metric's value will be negative
> infinity and users can not rely on this metric to know if their consumer has
> caught up.
> We can fix this problem by assuming the lag is zero is FetchResponse is empty.
