The docs say: “Each task is assigned to a thread. Each task is capable of
handling multiple Kafka partitions, but a single partition must be handled by
only one task.”From what I understand additional tasks would sit idle.

For sink connectors, I believe you can scale up the tasks to match the
partitions on the topic. But I don't believe this is the case for source
connectors; the number of partitions on the topic you're producing to has
nothing to do with the number of connector tasks. It really depends on the
indi
