Hi, In Flink 1.5 we have introduced Credit-based Flow Control [1] in the network stack. Back then we were aware about potential downsides of it [2] and we decided to keep the old model in the code base ( configurable by setting `taskmanager.network.credit-model: false` ). Now, that we are about to modify internals of the network stack again [3], it might be a good time to clean up the code and remove the older code paths.
Is anyone still using the non default non Credit-based model ( `taskmanager.network.credit-model: false`)? If so, why?
