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. With 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? was (Author: sihuazhou): Hi [~yow] What do you means by the empty ProcessAggregation?

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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
