Hi,

There are some known issues with the DirectRunner PubSubIO, which are not
present with Dataflow Runner. One of them is around watermarks:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7322

Not sure if this is part of the issue here, but worth exploring..

When testing are you sending a small volume of information and then
stopping or are you sending continuous output?

Cheers

Reza
