Hi Spico,
I changed the parallelism as you suggested but it didn't work. Yesterday 
evening i gave up on using the KafkaSpout class that comes with storm. I found 
some Kafka consumer java classes online and wrote my own Kafka spout which is 
working fine. Thanks for the advice anyway.

hi,
 i think the problem that you have is that you have stup one partition per 
topic, but you try to conume with 10 kafka task spouts. 
check this lines builder.setSpout("words", new KafkaSpout(kafkaConfig), 10);
10 represents the task parslellism for the spout, that shoul be in the case of 
kafka the same number as the partition you have  setup for kafka topic. you use 
more than one kafka partition when you would like to consume in parallel the 
data from the topic. please check the very good documentation on ksfka 
partition on confluent site.
 in my opinon, set up your hint parallelism to 1 would solve the problem. tne 
max spout pending has a different meaning.
regards,
florin
