Hi All, I am still very new to Storm and am looking at implementing a topology at the company I work for. I am seeing some odd behavior though in version 1.0.1. Mostly I see that the number of tuples acked is greater than the number of tuples sent out. This is happening on the default stream and is not including the __ack* stream.
The topology is very basic as I'm just testing things out. Currently it is a kafka spout with 1 task/executor/ -> 2 data transformer bolt instances with 2 executors. This bolt acks on all tuples and emits a tuple that has the input one as an anchor. The next bolt gets the tuple from the first bolt and acks on them. Is this a common thing? What causes this behavior? Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Zach
