Hey,

After a year or so I have Kafka as my streaming layer in my production, I 
decided it is time to audit, and to test how many events do I lose, if I lose 
events at all.


I discovered something interesting which I can't explain.


The producer produces less events that the consumer group consumes.


It is not much more, it is about 0.1% more events


I use the Consumer API (not the simple consumer API)


I was thinking I might had rebalancing going on in my system, but it doesn't 
look like that.


Did anyone see such a behaviour


In order to audit, I calculated for each event the minute it arrived, and 
assigned this value to the event, I used statsd do to count all events from all 
my producer cluster, and all consumer group cluster.


I must say that it is not a happening for every minute,


Thanks, Guy
