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

> FLINK-12483 introduced a separate thread for executing the sources in the 
> mailbox model.

I confirm, for the streaming source tasks, the source function (and other 
chained operators) is now running in a separate thread.
For such tasks, the main task thread now mostly waiting for termination of that 
thread and does task shutdown/cleanup.

I'm not aware of any explicit changes/adjustments related to backpressure 
tracking.

Quick look into {{BackPressureStatsTrackerImpl}} source code, points to 
tracking {{LocalBufferPool.requestBufferBlocking}} method calls in stack 
traces. It's possible that this method is not used anymore in the production 
(due to some other changes to make inputs non-blocking).

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Runtime / Metrics, Runtime / Task
>    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
>            Reporter: Dawid Wysakowicz
>            Assignee: Dawid Wysakowicz
>            Priority: Blocker
>             Fix For: 1.9.0

> I think it is caused by: [FLINK-12483]. The reason is that the 
> {{BackPressureStatsTrackerImpl}} samples only the main thread. FLINK-12483 
> introduced a separate thread for executing the sources in the mailbox model. 
> It is similar to other old bug that concerned only Kafka source: [FLINK-3456]
