Hi there, I have one topic with one partition and i want to know how many messages are there in the topic.
I noticed that if i run: kafka-console-consumer --topic mytopic --bootstrap-server [..]:9092 --from-beginning [..] Processed a total of 23626 messages If I instead run: kafka.tools.GetOffsetShell --broker-list [..]:9092 --topic mytopic --time -1 mytopic:0:47252 So the 2 commands return different numbers and the first returns exactly half the amount the second does. Why the 2 commands do not return the same amount and which one is right? kafka-console-consumer --version 5.4.1-ccs (Commit:fd1e543386b47352) kafka-run-class -version openjdk version "1.8.0_212" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (Zulu 8.38.0.13-CA-linux64) (build 1.8.0_212-b04) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (Zulu 8.38.0.13-CA-linux64) (build 25.212-b04, mixed mode) regards, fabio pardi
