Anton Kalashnikov updated FLINK-24191:
--------------------------------------
    Description: 
"Buffer debloat" adjusts only the buffer size but it also makes sense to adjust 
the number of buffers. It is not clear for now what should be adjusted and in 
which proportions so it needs to think about how to figure this out.
The main idea of this ticket is to understand what is better to have one buffer 
of 10 records or 10 buffers of 1 record. On one hand handling of each buffer 
has an overhead on another hand,  in case of low load it doesn't really make 
sense and it is ok to have many buffers with small sizes. Perhaps, we need 
benchmarks(microbenchamrk) to understand correlation between performance / 
buffers number / buffer size.
