My previous suggestion simply dequeues all completed records until an
unacked record is found. This is really straightforward, but we could try to do
better.
We could dequeue all records except those that have a source partition that
has not been acked. For example, let's say we have enqueue 4 records when
`commitOffsets()` is called:
```
1. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O1...}, acked=true}
2. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O2...}, acked=true}
3. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O3...}, acked=false}
4. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O1...}, acked=true}
5. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O2...}, acked=true}
6. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O4...}, acked=false}
7. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O3...}, acked=true}
8. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O4...}, acked=true}
9. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O5...}, acked=true}
10. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O6...}, acked=false}
```
This might happen if records 4, 5, and 7-10 were written to different topic
partitions than records 1, 2, 3, and 6, and the producer is stuck on the latter
partitions.
With the simplistic logic, we'd only dequeue record 1 and 2, we'd add the
offset for these two records to the offset writer, and we'd flush offset
`partition=P1,offset=O2`. We'd end up with the following remaining in the queue
(using the same record numbers as before):
```
3. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O3...}, acked=false}
4. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O1...}, acked=true}
5. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O2...}, acked=true}
6. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O4...}, acked=false}
7. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O3...}, acked=true}
8. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O4...}, acked=true}
9. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O5...}, acked=true}
10. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O6...}, acked=false}
```
There are quite a few records with source partition `P2` that were acked but
not dequeued, simply because they were behind an unacked record with a
different source partition.
However, if we dequeue all acked records with a source partition map that
does not match a previously un-acked record, then we'd be able to dequeue more
records and *also* flush offsets
`partition=P1,offset=O2,partition=P2,offset=O7`. We'd end up with a much
smaller queue (again, using the same record numbers as before):
```
3. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O3...}, acked=false}
6. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P1,offset=O4...}, acked=false}
10. SubmittedRecord{ SourceRecord{...partition=P2,offset=O6...}, acked=false}
```
This minor change will dramatically improve the ability to commit offsets
closer to what has actually be acked.
