pnowojski opened a new pull request #12267:
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/12267


   For some reason the following commit:
   54155744bd [FLINK-17547][task] Use RefCountedFile in SpanningWrapper
   
   caused a performance regression in various benchmarks. It's hard to tell why
   as none of the benchmarks are using spill files (records are too small), so
   our best guess is that combination of AtomicInteger inside RefCountedFile
   plus NullPointerException handling messed up with JIT ability to get rid
   of the memory barrier (from AtomicInteger) on the hot path.
