             Summary: Topology may hang because metric-tick function is a 
blocking call from spout
                 Key: STORM-1027
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-1027
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.10.0
            Reporter: Abhishek Agarwal


Nathan had fixed the dining philosopher problem by putting a overflow buffer in 
the spout so that spout is not blocking. However, overflow buffer is not used 
when emitting the metric, and that could result in the deadlock. I modified the 
executor to use overflow buffer for emitting metrics and afterwards topology 
didn't hang.
