The user might have other non-Flink concurrent consumers reading the same shard (Kinesis limits to 5 concurrent reads per shard.) The user should either slow down the non-Flink consumers, or slow down our `ShardConsumer` by adjusting the `KinesisConfigConstants.CONFIG_SHARD_GETRECORDS_IDLE_MILLIS` we will be introducing in https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2071. 2. The size of each record is too large, and the user needs to adjust `KinesisConfigConstants.CONFIG_SHARD_GETRECORDS_MAX` to a smaller value. `describeStream()` on the other hand is an internal operation we need to continuously do, and make sure we get results for the connector to work.
