> As discovered and discussed in YARN-5269 the 
> TimelineCollector#putEntitiesAsync method is currently not implemented and 
> TimelineCollector#putEntities is asynchronous.
> TimelineV2ClientImpl#putEntities vs TimelineV2ClientImpl#putEntitiesAsync 
> correctly call TimelineEntityDispatcher#dispatchEntities(boolean sync,... 
> with the correct argument. This argument does seem to make it into the 
> params, and on the server side TimelineCollectorWebService#putEntities 
> correctly pulls the async parameter from the rest call. See line 156:
> {code}
>     boolean isAsync = async != null && async.trim().equalsIgnoreCase("true");
> {code}
> However, this is where the problem starts. It simply calls 
> TimelineCollector#putEntities and ignores the value of isAsync. It should 
> instead have called TimelineCollector#putEntitiesAsync, which is currently 
> not implemented.
> putEntities should call putEntitiesAsync and then after that call 
> writer.flush()
> The fact that we flush on close and we flush periodically should be more of a 
> concern of avoiding data loss; close in case sync is never called and the 
> periodic flush to guard against having data from slow writers get buffered 
> for a long time and expose us to risk of loss in case the collector crashes 
> with data in its buffers. Size-based flush is a different concern to avoid 
> blowing up memory footprint.
> The spooling behavior is also somewhat separate.
> We have two separate methods on our API putEntities and putEntitiesAsync and 
> they should have different behavior beyond waiting for the request to be sent.
