Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-15132:
--------------------------------------
Chatted also quickly with [~pnowojski] and [~SleePy]. looks like this is not a
problem in either 1.9 or 1.10.
The blocking call is indeed happening always in the IOExecutor.
Closing this issue as invalid.

> Key: FLINK-15132
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15132
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Runtime / Checkpointing
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.10.0
>
>
> The {{PendingCheckpoint.completePendingCheckpoint()}} method is called
> synchronously from within the Scheduler / JobMaster Main Thread.
> The method writes out the checkpoint metadata, which is a potentially
> blocking I/O method.
> Because the target may block arbitrarily long (for example S3 when load
> throttling), this can bring down the entire cluster (blocking actor threads,
> heartbeat timeouts).
