While using eachBatch(), the consumer isn't processing messages from each batch and just calling multiple batches

[anupamd2-zluri]

Kafka Setup

2 Broker URLs
1 Topic with 4 Partitions - workflow-executions
1 Consumer Group (raw-data-consumer) with 4 Consumers (Kubernetes PODs)

Currently we are using eachMessage() to process the messages from the Brokers but we are not able to achieve the required throughput.

We are doing a POC of using eachBatch() to process the messages in batches.

While using eachBatch(), we found out that the messages from each batch isn't being processed but the handler function keeps on calling the eachBatch(). Is this the expected behaviour?
