zhijiang created FLINK-10995: -------------------------------- Summary: Copy intermediate serialization results only once for broadcast mode Key: FLINK-10995 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10995 Project: Flink Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Network Affects Versions: 1.8.0 Reporter: zhijiang Assignee: zhijiang
The emitted records from operator would be firstly serialized into intermediate bytes array in {{RecordSerializer}}, then copy the intermediate results into target buffers for different sub partitions. For broadcast mode, the same intermediate results would be copied as many times as the number of sub partitions, and this would affect the performance seriously in large scale jobs. We can copy to only one target buffer which would be shared by all the sub partitions to reduce the overheads. For emitting latency marker in broadcast mode, we should flush the previous shared target buffers first, and then request a new buffer for the target sub partition to send latency marker. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
