Till Rohrmann commented on FLINK-16069:
---------------------------------------

This is a good finding [~zhuzh]. I like the ideas. Another idea could be to 
introduce a dedicated {{serializationExecutor}} which is used for the 
{{submitTask}} call and which has a limited number of threads. That way we 
isolate the CPU-intensive parts a bit.

Are the {{shuffleDescriptors}} {{Execution}} specific? If yes, then we will 
have a lot of IO operations for writing the blobs when deploying the 
{{Executions}}. This might lead to other problems if we write the files from 
the main thread.

> Creation of TaskDeploymentDescriptor can block main thread for long time

> The deploy of tasks will take long time when we submit a high parallelism 
> job. And Execution#deploy run in mainThread, so it will block JobMaster 
> process other akka messages, such as Heartbeat. The creation of 
> TaskDeploymentDescriptor take most of time. We can put the creation in future.
> For example, A job [source(8000)->sink(8000)], the total 16000 tasks from 
> SCHEDULED to DEPLOYING took more than 1mins. This caused the heartbeat of 
> TaskManager timeout and job never success.
