------------------------------------
[~pnowojski] Thanks for your suggestion. Yes. I was just thinking about some
details about the implementation.
> Limit the maximum backlogs in subpartitions for data skew case
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-16645
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16645
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Runtime / Network
> Reporter: Zhijiang
> Assignee: Jiayi Liao
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.11.0
>
>
> In the case of data skew, most of the buffers in partition's LocalBufferPool
> are probably requested away and accumulated in certain subpartition, which
> would increase in-flight data to slow down the barrier alignment.
> We can set up a proper config to control how many backlogs are allowed for
> one subpartition. If one subpartition reaches this threshold, it will make
> the buffer pool unavailable which blocks task processing continuously. Then
> we can reduce the in-flight data for speeding up checkpoint process a bit and
> not impact on the performance.
