Re: String Interning
Am I the only one that feels the config should be renamed or the docs on it expanded? Turning on object reuse doesn't really reuse objects, not in the sense that an object can be reused for different values / messages / records. Instead, it stops Flink from making copies of of a record, by serializing them and deserializing them, when passing them to the next operator.

Re: String Interning
Hi, you can enable object reuse via the execution config [1]: „By default, objects are not reused in Flink. Enabling the object reuse mode will instruct the runtime to reuse user objects for better performance. Keep in mind that this can lead to bugs when the user-code function of an operation is not aware of this behavior.“.

String Interning
I have a job where I read data from Kafka, do some processing on it, and write it to a database. When I read data out of Kafka, I put it into an object that has a String field based on the Kafka message key. The possible values for the message key are tightly constrained so there are fewer than 100 possible unique key values. Profiling of the Flink job shows millions of in flight stream elements, with an equal number of Strings, but I know all the strings are duplicates of a small number of unique values. So it's an ideal usecase for String interning. I've tried to use interning in the constructors for the message elements, but I suspect that I need to do something to preserve the interning when Flink serializes/deserializes objects when passing them between operators. What's the best way to accomplish that? -- Notice: This e-mail is intended solely for use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is proprietary, privileged and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
