If I understand correctly, you're setting this cap to reduce the ratio between the largest and smallest shard? This seems a reasonable workaround to handle pathologically bad situations. (BTW, the way that Dataflow handles this is that it is not limited by the initial splitting, but rather creates further splits dynamically when some workers have finished their chunk and others have substantial work left to do. This is especially handy when sources are not byte based (or the processing is not evenly spread out among the bytes).) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
