> Consider the following code -
> 		KafkaConsumer<String, String> consumer = new KafkaConsumer<String, String>(props);
> 		List<TopicPartition> listOfPartitions = new ArrayList();
> 		for (int i = 0; i < consumer.partitionsFor("IssueTopic").size(); i++) {
> 			listOfPartitions.add(new TopicPartition("IssueTopic", i));
> 		}
> 		consumer.assign(listOfPartitions);		
> 		consumer.pause(listOfPartitions);
> 		consumer.seekToEnd(listOfPartitions);
> //		consumer.resume(listOfPartitions); -- commented out
> 		for(int i = 0; i < listOfPartitions.size(); i++) {
> 			System.out.println(consumer.position(listOfPartitions.get(i)));
> 		}

> I have created a topic IssueTopic with 3 partitions with a single replica on my single node kafka installation (0.10.1.0)
> The behavior noticed for Kafka client 0.10.1.0 as against Kafka client 0.10.0.1
> A) Initially when there are no messages on IssueTopic running the above program returns
> 0.10.1.0                   
> 0                              
> 0                              
> 0           
> 0.10.0.1
> 0
> 0
> 0
> B) Next I send 6 messages and see that the messages have been evenly distributed across the three partitions. Running the above program now returns 
> 0.10.1.0                   
> 0                              
> 0                              
> 2                              
> 0.10.0.1
> 2
> 2
> 2
> Clearly there is a difference in behavior for the 2 clients.
> Now after seekToEnd call if I make a call to resume (uncomment the resume call in code above) then the behavior is
> 0.10.1.0                   
> 2                              
> 2                              
> 2                              
> 0.10.0.1
> 2
> 2
> 2
> This is an issue I came across when using the spark kafka integration for 0.10. When I use kafka 0.10.1.0 I started seeing this issue. I had raised a pull request to resolve that issue [SPARK-18779] but when looking at the kafka client implementation/documentation now it seems the issue is with kafka and not with spark. There does not seem to be any documentation which specifies/implies that we need to call resume after seekToEnd for position to return the correct value. Also there is a clear difference in the behavior in the two kafka client implementations.
