Guozhang, but i've posted a piece from kafka documentation above:
So effectively Kafka guarantees at-least-once delivery by default and
allows the user to implement at most once delivery by disabling retries on
the producer.

What i want is at-most-once and docs claim it's possible with certain
settings. Did i miss anything here?
