timeout issue with async commit , we want to commit every message after consuming

[chunaiarun]

Describe the bug
32 consumers started to process 7 million messages from 32 partitions ( from the kafka queue)
We are doing manual async commit

To Reproduce

Have 7 million messages produced and segregated equally into 32 partitions
Configure consumer code to do "manual async commit"
then start 32 consumers at the same time
we saw below timeout error in almost all consumer logs.
Expected behavior
"(5i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out OffsetCommitRequest in flight (after 60628ms, timeout #0)")"
"(5i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out OffsetCommitRequest in flight (after 60628ms, timeout KxSystems/kafka#1)")"
"(5i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out OffsetCommitRequest in flight (after 60628ms, timeout KxSystems/kafka#2)")"
"(5i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out OffsetCommitRequest in flight (after 60628ms, timeout KxSystems/kafka#3)")"
"(5i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out OffsetCommitRequest in flight (after 60628ms, timeout KxSystems/kafka#4)")"
"(4i;"REQTMOUT";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator/2: Timed out 66792 in-flight, 0 retry-queued, 95763 out-queue, 0 partially-sent requests")"
"(3i;"FAIL";"[thrd:GroupCoordinator]: GroupCoordinator: :443: 162555 request(s) timed out

FYI
(fetch.wait.max.ms;10);
(statistics.interval.ms;10000);
(enable.auto.commit;false);
(enable.auto.offset.store;false);
(message.max.bytes;1000000000) );

We have 32 consumers started to process 7 million messages from 32 partitions ( from the kafka queue) We are doing manual async commit

We would like to commit every message here. Is there way to get rid of this timeout... I tried to increase the socket.timeout.ms from default 60secs to 120 secs. I somehow helped.

Any suggestions ??
We are using https://github.com/KxSystems/kafka (kfk is a thin wrapper for kdb+ around librdkafka C API for Kafka. It is part of the Fusion for kdb+ interface collection)

Can you provide debug logs? Committing for each message isn't recommended.

[chunaiarun]

Sure will give you

@anchitj Please find the logs

For all the 32 consumers we got this during startup.
As we are a regulatory reporting application, we don't want to miss any message, so we have a requirement to commit each message

Isn't this covered in https://github.com/confluentinc/librdkafka/wiki/FAQ#why-committing-each-message-is-slow ?

Chances are you're experiencing exactly the same behavior described in that post, and the recommendation is (and has always been) to avoid manual commits (even async ones) and use the auto-commit + store_offsets() API

I honestly don't think this is a bug
