-----------------------------------

Hi [~yow] What do you means by the empty ProcessAggregation? Did you use any 
state in the empty ProcessAggregation? Or could you somehow provide some code 
of the empty ProcessAggregation?

I think the picture related to he keyNoHash vs KeyHash is what I expected. 
Without hash() the key's length is only 4 bytes and the distribution is 
uniform, without hash your key's length is 50 and also the distribution maybe 
not uniform. But with the hash() approach you could only get a approximate 
result, if that is enough for you then I think it's good to go now, is it not 
enough for you?

> Hi, we found out application performance drop more than 100% when 
> ReducingState.add is used in the source code. In the test checkpoint is 
> disable. And filesystem(hdfs) as statebackend.
> It could be easyly reproduce with a simple app, without checkpoint, just 
> simply keep storing record, also with simple reduction function(in fact with 
> empty function would see the same result). Any idea would be appreciated. 
> What an unbelievable obvious issue.
> Basically the app just keep storing record into the state, and we measure how 
> many record per second in "JsonTranslator", which is shown in the graph. The 
> difference between is just 1 line, comment/un-comment "recStore.add(r)".
> {code}
> DataStream<String> stream = env.addSource(new GeneratorSource(loop);
> DataStream<JSONObject> convert = stream.map(new JsonTranslator())
>                                        .keyBy()
>                                        .process(new ProcessAggregation())
>                                        .map(new PassthruFunction());  
> public class ProcessAggregation extends ProcessFunction {
>     private ReducingState<Record> recStore;
>     public void processElement(Recordr, Context ctx, Collector<Record> out) {
>         recStore.add(r); //this line make the difference
> }
> {code}
> Record is POJO class contain 50 String private member.
