Antonio Verardi commented on FLINK-12122:
-----------------------------------------
[~till.rohrmann]: Thanks for picking this feature up! It happens to be very
important for my company, too.
Do you still think you'll manage to ship this one in the 1.9 release or we
should expect it to come a bit further down the line? We are evaluating whether
it makes sense for us to implement something custom now or just to wait this
out.

> With Flip-6, we changed the default behaviour how slots are assigned to
> {{TaskManages}}. Instead of evenly spreading it out over all registered
> {{TaskManagers}}, we randomly pick slots from {{TaskManagers}} with a
> tendency to first fill up a TM before using another one. This is a regression
> wrt the pre Flip-6 code.
> I suggest to change the behaviour so that we try to evenly distribute slots
> across all available {{TaskManagers}} by considering how many of their slots
> are already allocated.
