>                 Key: FLINK-15132
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15132
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Runtime / Checkpointing
>            Reporter: Stephan Ewen
>            Priority: Blocker
>
> The {{PendingCheckpoint.completePendingCheckpoint()}} method is called 
> synchronously from within the Scheduler / JobMaster Main Thread.
> The method writes out the checkpoint metadata, which is a potentially 
> blocking I/O method.
> Because the target may block arbitrarily long (for example S3 when load 
> throttling), this can bring down the entire cluster (blocking actor threads, 
> heartbeat timeouts).
