Jason Kania commented on FLINK-16468:
-------------------------------------
[~gjy], to me, as a user, your restart strategy seems to lack a consolidate
approach with the patchwork addition of individual small timeouts. I ask the
open question of how many more of the small timeouts may have to be added for
different components that exhibit the same instant restart approach in the face
of external failures? I also question where users can expect to learn about
each individual timer in detail and what each should be. In my opinion, users
are left finding and tuning these values in the face of infrequent failures
rather than having the option to strategically handle these situations
proactively.
Because the remedy you suggest seems unlikely to be effective in my situation,
I am not interested in contributing to this particular proposed solution.
