> Key: FLINK-8178
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8178
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Network
> Reporter: Piotr Nowojski
> Assignee: Piotr Nowojski
> Fix For: 1.5.0
>
>
> While Buffer class is used in multithreaded context it requires
> synchronisation. Now it is miss-leading/unclear and suggesting that
> RecordSerializer should take into account synchronisation of the Buffer
> that's holding. With NotThreadSafe BufferBuilder there would be clear
> separation between single-threaded writing/creating a BufferBuilder and
> multithreaded Buffer handling/retaining/recycling.
