how can I reduce usage of resources in kafka connect? is there any option to increase the refresh interval?

Question

I am using Kafka-Influxdb connector and for now, It is enough for me to refresh the Kafka topic in a 1-minute interval but I can't find any option to change the refresh time

If you want to override producer properties (linger.ms in your case) for a specific connector, enable client overrides in the worker configuration and then use producer.override.* for a source connector config:

"producer.override.linger.ms": "0"
