--------------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
> Clarification of buffer size threshold calculation in BufferDebloater
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-24690
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24690
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Runtime / Network
> Affects Versions: 1.14.0
> Reporter: Anton Kalashnikov
> Priority: Major
>
> It looks like that the variable `skipUpdate` in
> BufferDebloater#recalculateBufferSize is calculated in a not obvious way.
> For example if
> `taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.threshold-percentages` is set to
> 50(means 50%) then it will be something like:
> * 32000 -> 16000(possible)
> * 32000 -> 17000(not possible)
> * 16000 -> 24000(not possible) - but 16000 + 50% = 24000
> * 16000 -> 32000(only this possible)
> This happens because the algorithm takes into account only the largest value.
> So in example of `16000 -> 24000` it would calculate 50% of 24000 so only
> transit from 12000 -> 24000 possible.
> In general, this approach is not so bad especially on small values (instead
> of 256 ->374, the minimum possible transit is 256 -> 512). But we should
> clarify it somewhere with test or javadoc or both. Also, we can discuss
> changing this algorithm to a more natural implementation.
