Distribute topics between consumers #76

Open AlexzTj opened 3 years ago

AlexzTj commented 3 years ago

I have many topics which can not have more than 1 partition and many consumers with the same consumer group. Apparently only one consumer reads messages from all topics, other consumers just do nothing.

How kafka broker can weight consumer load and distribute topics between them evenly?
