Describe the feature you're interested in

Hi,
i'm wondering if it's possible at lower costs to have the possibility to sort the Topics by "number of messages" in addition to other sort available.
Moreover, having the possibility to visualize an average size per partition (sortable) would be very useful too.
Thanks

Hi,
#450 (comment)
the same applies to the average size per partition. However, you can get this information from running topic analysis.

Hi @Haarolean thanks for quick reply.
Sorry if i not understand, but topic statistics is not for a specific topic ?
The idea is to be able to sort the topics table even if the number is approximate.
Approximation is already the case on the topics table and i don't think it bothers anyone.
Topic Statistics is here to have consistent data on a specific topic

I suggest we revisit this decision since it's a popular question. We didn't make the column sortable with a purpose as the values aren't fair (e.g. due to topic compaction).
