starting a thread in the customized sink ?

[terreyshih]

Hi,

If in my customized sink, I create some threads and schedule it to do some 
queueing.  For example, I would like to drop the events off every 10 seconds.  
If I start the thread or an executor in the process method of the customized 
sink class, would have have some negative impact to the threading model in 
Flume ?

thanks,
