We do mention it in the javadoc, but > it's a little hidden and we aren't very clear on what the user should do to > limit the potential for the consumer to fall out of the group (such as > tweaking max.poll.records). We should pull this into a separate section (e.g. > Jay suggests "Detecting Consumer Failures") and give it a more complete > treatment. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
