Hi, A WindowAll is executed in a single task. If you sort the data before the window, the sorting must also happen in a single task, i.e., with parallelism 1. The reasons is that an operator somewhat randomly merges multiple input partitions. So even if each input partition is sorted, the merging will result in out-of-order data.
