Thanks for joining the discussion.

> 1. How to optimize the broadcast result partition?
For the partitions with multi-consumers, e.g., broadcast result partition,
partition reuse,
speculative, etc, the processing logic is the same as the original Hybrid
Shuffle, that is,
using the full spilling strategy. It indeed may reduce the opportunity to
consume from
memory, but the PoC shows that it has no effect on the performance
basically.

> 2. Can the new proposal completely avoid this problem of inaccurate
backlog
calculation?
Yes, this can avoid the problem completely. About the read buffers, the N
is to reserve
one exclusive buffer per channel, which is to avoid the deadlock because
the buffers
are acquired by some channels and other channels can not request any
buffers. But
the buffers except for the N can be floating (competing to request the
buffers) by all
channels.

> Deciding the Segment size dynamically will be helpful.
I agree that it may be better if the segment size is dynamically decided,
but for simplifying
the implementation of the first version, we want to make this a fixed value
for each tier.
In the future, this can be a good improvement if necessary. In the first
version, we will mainly
focus on the more important features, such as the tiered storage
architecture, dynamic
switching tiers, supporting remote storage, memory management, etc.

Best,
Yuxin
