Azure Service Bus does not support prefetch-count

[lukas-paulun]

I am running celery workers of a celery app that uses AzureServiceBus as broker. I noticed that the workers are already executing a task, they will always only fetch one additional task from the queue, regardless of what number I put in celery -A app worker [...] --prefetch-multiplier=XX.

Is there any particular reason, the argument from celery is not passed on to the ServiceBusClient or ServiceBusReceiver objects, which support this argument?

most probably that time it was not supported in azure backend

And is it possible to fix this? Should I open an issue about it?

I think you should do more research on this first, and if the end result is it can be possible to add that, a PR is welcome
