Hi, I have to process a topic with few thousand messages and a dozen partitions from the very beginning. This topic is manually populated before consumption. In this setup a consumer consuming from several partitions at the same time tend to consume assigned partitions sequentially: first all messages from 1 partition, then all messages from another and so on. I wonder if there is away to make consumption more fair? I tried to play with consumer properties without any luck. My kafka version is 0.10.2.
Thank you, Stanislav.
