Well, I got it wrong. According to RabbitMQ's definition of prefetch, a value of 0 means to drain the entire queue into the consumer--an infinite prefetch. This PR fixes that by setting a minimum value of 1
If you have many consumers and/or long processing time, we recommend you to set the prefetch count to one (1) so that messages are evenly distributed among all your workers.
