Hi John,

in your setup the two flows between the broadcast and the zip must always be 
perfectly balanced, if one of them may lose elements then eventually the whole 
graph will get stuck. Either you make sure that failure does not happen (and 
when it does you don’t restart but kill the whole stream because you know that 
it will be broken and needs to be recreated) or you make up elements on demand, 
e.g. using the expand() combinator. The second possibility leads to 
non-deterministic behavior, though: it is not predetermined which element will 
be expanded exactly.

A buffer does not help in this scenario. The difference in the “balancing 
buffer” blog post is that elements are distributed dynamically to the branches 
whereas here you want to always feed every input into all branches.

Regards,

Roland
