Kafka retry commit async on fail - why should I do so?
I use commit async with kafka (obviously without auto-commit).
Unfortunately, I came across the following exception:
error org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.RetriableCommitFailedException: Offset commit failed with a retriable exception. You should retry committing the latest consumed offsets
After some investigation, I found out that even without committing offsets, the consumer keep on consuming messages from the topic.
After reading a little I saw that it is recommended to retry committing the offsets.
I don't understand why. The consumer is not threadsafe, therefore it is safe to assume that the retry already contains new offsets. And if so, wouldn't next commitAsync attempt suffice?

It'll keep consuming, but if the consumer restarts, then you'll re-process uncommitted offsets
