Resolution: Invalid

> Key: FLINK-5036
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5036
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: State Backends, Checkpointing
> Reporter: Xiaogang Shi
>
> Whenever taking snapshots of {{RocksDBKeyedStateBackend}}, the values in the
> states will be written onto different files according to their key groups.
> The procedure is very costly when the states are very big.
> Given that the snapshot operations will be performed much more frequently
> than restoring, we can leave the key groups as they are to improve the
> overall performance. In other words, we can perform the grouping of keys in
> restoring instead of in checkpointing.
> I think, the implementation will be very similar to the restoring of
> non-partitioned states. Each task will receive a collection of snapshots each
> of which contains a set of key groups. Each task will restore its states from
> the given snapshots by picking values in assigned key groups.
