Have a consumer group with one consumer for the topic .. by misunderstanding I 
have two partitions on the topic .. 
Due to having no key set for the record - I think having several consumers 
making no sense, or am I wrong.

Is there any possibility to work around that? 
Cause for example on lagging topic is put to a external REST service, which 
takes around 300ms to be handled.
So is lowering the max.poll.records an option?
Anyhow, I could probably not avoid situations like that. Sounds to me like a 
pretty common scenario?
So how to deal with them? Having a health check that crush the app if no data 
is appearing anymore?

Consuming not fast/frequent enough is one of the most common reasons for it. 
Have you you checked how fast/much message you’re churning out vs. how many 
consumers you have in the group the handle the workload?

Also, what are your partition setup for consumer groups?
