lamber-ken has an open PR (https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6247) that touches AsyncIOExample.java Do we need a new JIRA for the code cleanup that Chesnay recommends, or it can be done as part of the open PR and [FLINK-9730]?

For an example I would regard the latter as preferable to ensure that instances don't interfere with each other. As for your question, for a given instance open() is only called once.
