Alpakka consumer can be created for consuming from several kafka topics. I wonder if it is a good design choice to consume from several kafka topics in scope of one stream? I have several concerns about it. How does pulling of messages work in that case(what if 1 topic has a higher rate of imcoming messages than others)? Is it beneficial to use this approach with 1 stream consuming from several topics if the sink of that stream ends up writing to the same table in some SQL storage, for example(meaning that the table holds entity data which are constructed from that several topics)
