> "instabilities", do you mean "imbalances" or "varying conditions" (instabilities refer rather to failures than to stable conditions) Let's discuss it later but I think that `instabilities` is more correct word since I mean situations when conditions/environment are not stable(for example, it can be related to losing constant losing and establishing network connections) > why "minimum possible overhead", do you mean "minimum latency" (typical duo is "maximum throughput" and/vs "minimum latency") latency in general is not so important here. The latency for aligned checkpoints and memory usage for unaligned checkpoints are important. So I try to find somehow the correct word for both of these cases. Perhaps, something like "maximum throughput" vs "minimum effective memory"( or "memory overhead") > For Java non-networking/Netty affiliated people, make clear that the term buffer is here used as a data structure to store records but also as the unit that is transfered via network. It is exactly what is described in `Network buffer`, isn't it? -- ` Flink gather records into the network buffer which is the smallest unit of sending data to subtasks`. Perhaps, it makes sense to rephrase it but I think the explanation is exactly as you described. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
