ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-5800: --------------------------------------- GitHub user StephanEwen opened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3312 [FLINK-5800] [checkpointing] Create CheckpointSteamFactory only once per operator Previously, the factory was created once per checkpoint, and its repeated initialization logic (like ensuring existence of base paths) caused heavy load on some filesystems at very large scale. This issue was reported by (and the solution suggested by) Steven Wu. ## Core Changes The `CheckpointStreamFactory` is now created once per operator upon initialization of the operator. The factory is also stored in the operator, alongside the `KeyedStateBackend` and the `OperatorStateBackend`. ## Tests This change does not introduce new functionality, but simply re-arranges current tests to handle and check the changes instantiation of the CheckpointStreamFactory.
