> Key: FLINK-31623
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-31623
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Library / Machine Learning
> Reporter: Fan Hong
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> Current implementation employs two-level sampling method.
> However, when data instances are imbalanced distributed among partitions
> (subtasks), the probabilities of instances to be sampled are different in
> different partitions (subtasks), i.e., not a uniform sampling.
>
> In addition, one side-effect of current implementation is: one subtask has a
> memory footprint of `2 * numSamples * sizeof(element)`, which could cause
> unexpected OOM in some situations.
