> The internal default block generator that is used by receivers gets reused across receiver restarts. This can lead to duplicate data. This is sort-of-okay as receivers really provide at-least once guarantee at best. Furthermore Reliable receivers like the ReliableKafkaReceiver, did not reuse BlockGenerator objects hence did not have the problem.
> The solution is to ensure that the internal buffer of the BlockGenerator is cleared every time it is started.
