Kurt Young commented on FLINK-10995:
------------------------------------
Would it possible to open the Jira for writing only one file in BLOCKING
broadcast shuffle first and start to discuss the design and plan?
> Copy intermediate serialization results only once for broadcast mode

> Key: FLINK-10995

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Runtime / Network
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Reporter: zhijiang

> Priority: Minor
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Time Spent: 10m

> The emitted records from operator would be firstly serialized into
> intermediate bytes array in {{RecordSerializer}}, then copy the intermediate
> results into target buffers for different sub partitions. For broadcast
> mode, the same intermediate results would be copied as many times as the
> number of sub partitions, and this would affect the performance seriously in
> large scale jobs.
> We can copy to only one target buffer which would be shared by all the sub
> partitions to reduce the overheads. For emitting latency marker in broadcast
> mode, we should flush the previous shared target buffers first, and then
> request a new buffer for the target sub partition to send latency marker.
