Hi Dan, Have you use a too large upperBound or lowerBound?
If not, could you also check the watermark strategy ? The interval join operator depends on the event-time timer for cleanup, and the event-time timer would be triggered via watermark.

I'm running a backfill Flink stream job over older data. It has multiple interval joins. I noticed my checkpoint is regularly gaining in size. I'd expect my checkpoints to stabilize and not grow. Is there a setting to prune useless data from the checkpoint? My top guess is that my checkpoint has a bunch of useless state in it. - Dan
