Hi Carlos -

This sounds like something we should investigate further.  Since it appears
to be a Dataflow specific question / issue, would you mind posting or
following up in a Dataflow-specific forum or through Google Cloud Platform
Support: https://cloud.google.com/dataflow/support?  Feel free to mention
my name in your contact.

Cheers
Andrea
