This is very useful when you need to join two topics that are > out of sync, i.e when data in a topic may be produced _before_ you receive > join information in the other topic. > In the documentation, however, it is not specified that the value of > _max.task.idle.ms_ *must* be lower than _max.poll.intervall.ms_, otherwise > you'll incur into an endless rebalancing problem. > I think it is better to clearly state this in the documentation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
