   Dear Gobblin maintainers,
   
   Please accept this PR. I understand that it will not be reviewed until I 
have checked off all the steps below!
   
   
   ### JIRA
   - [ ] My PR addresses the following [Gobblin 
JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOBBLIN/) issues and references 
them in the PR title. For example, "[GOBBLIN-XXX] My Gobblin PR"
       - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOBBLIN-1343
   
   
   ### Description
   - [ ] Here are some details about my PR, including screenshots (if 
applicable):
   
   Problem statement:
   
   Previously, we maintain a cache in PartitionedDataWriter to avoid accumulate 
writer in memory in long running job. But when we expire the writer, we only 
close it without flush/commit, so it may cause data loss when there is a 
slowness happening on HDFS.
   
   Potential solution:
   
   In the removal logic, we can make sure the writer has been committed 
correctly, i.e. force it to commit before close.  But the issue here is we 
still remove the writer from cache, so next flush message will be handled and 
return without call commit for the right writer, and watermark will move 
without data being published to HDFS.
   We calculate the time for the write operation, and if it takes a long time, 
we force to add the writer back to cache so that next flush message will be 
picked up by the writer. 
   Here we use the second solution
   
   ### Tests

this extremely good reason:
