Jark Wu commented on FLINK-19064:
---------------------------------
What [~rmetzger] said makes sense to me. {{configure()}} is not a recommended
method to create connection. According to the Javadoc, we should override the
{{openInputFormat()}} to allocate resources and release them in
{{closeInputFormat()}}.
> HBaseRowDataInputFormat is leaking resources
