This is annoying but reconnection happens before topology recovery, so
it is able to reconnect.

I cannot immediately say what may be going here but there is one
default = 5 in the client.

ConsumerWorkService uses a 5 thread executor by default (instantiated
with Executors.newFixedThreadPool). Try setting a custom executor that
has, say, 64 threads and configure ConnectionFactory with it, and let us know
how it goes.
