@jtstorck this looks good to me. Simple merge conflict in import statements
but I was able to address that. Otherwise, I think this is all a great step
forward. I do agree that we will likely need more PR's later to further enrich
the existing processors but this lays the groundwork for it all, so it makes
sense to merge it in as-is. So +1 merged to master. Thanks for getting this
knocked out!
> NIFI component high resource usage annotation
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-4872
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4872
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core Framework, Core UI
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Jeff Storck
> Assignee: Jeff Storck
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> NiFi Processors currently have no means to relay whether or not they have may
> be resource intensive or not. The idea here would be to introduce an
> Annotation that can be added to Processors that indicate they may cause high
> memory, disk, CPU, or network usage. For instance, any Processor that reads
> the FlowFile contents into memory (like many XML Processors for instance) may
> cause high memory usage. What ultimately determines if there is high
> memory/disk/cpu/network usage will depend on the FlowFiles being processed.
> With many of these components in the dataflow, it increases the risk of
> OutOfMemoryErrors and performance degradation.
> The annotation should support one value from a fixed list of: CPU, Disk,
> Memory, Network. It should also allow the developer to provide a custom
> description of the scenario that the component would fall under the high
> usage category. The annotation should be able to be specified multiple
> times, for as many resources as it has the potential to be high usage.
> By marking components with this new Annotation, we can update the generated
> Processor documentation to include this fact.
