jvm processes to consume messages

Hi,

I have a light load scenerio but I am starting off with kafka because I
like how the messages are durable etc.

If I have 4-5 topics, am I required to create the same # of consumers?  I
am assuming each consumer runs in a long-running jvm process correct?


Are there any consumer examples that use java, and also have the startup
scripts to start/stop the process on an ubuntu server?
