Hi Fabian, Is below description still remain the same in Flink 1.6?
Slots do not guard CPU time, IO, or JVM memory. At the moment they only isolate managed memory which is only used for batch processing. For streaming applications their only purpose is to limit the number of parallel threads that can be executed by a TaskManager. -- Sent from: http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/
