Hi, In my understanding this is the expected behaviour of the code. The only way to shut down the Emitter is via an interrupt because it is otherwise blocking on the queue. If the Emitter had been interrupted while the operator is still running it would have gone down a different code path: https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/40cec17f4303b43bbf65d8be542f0646eada57e8/flink-streaming-java/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/streaming/api/operators/async/Emitter.java#L89
Did you see any other faulty behaviour or only this log message. Best, Aljoscha > On 6.
