Hi,
Re Q1: The main purpose of the Trigger.clean() method is to remove all
custom state of the Trigger. State must be explicitly removed, otherwise
the program leaks memory.
Re Q3: If you are using a keyed stream, you need to manually clean up the
state by calling State.clear(). If you are using a ProcessFunction, you can
do that in processElement() or register a timer and clean up in onTimer().
Best, Fabian
