Github user arunmahadevan commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/625#issuecomment-119832755 See the comment @ storm-core/src/clj/backtype/storm/disruptor.clj `;; :block strategy requires using a timeout on waitFor (implemented in DisruptorQueue), as sometimes the consumer stays blocked even when there's an item on the queue.` So with this change the bolts might have to wait for up to one sec (in the worst case) before they see the tuple after its added to the queue.
