Jiayi Liao updated FLINK-14862:
-------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: Should we send records before the operators are open?

The question occurs to me because I've met the same problem when I was doing 
FLINK-5601 in our inner version of flink. And I choose to send the wartermark 
in open function at last.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14862
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Runtime / Task
>            Reporter: Igal Shilman
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently chained operators lack the ability to send records downstream 
> during initializeState (AbstractStreamOperator#initalizeState), because 
> downstream operators in the chain didn't open yet 
> (AbstractStreamOperator#open).
> The main problem with that is that the rawOperatorState and the 
> rawKeyedStateInputs are only valid during the execution of initializeState, 
> and with large raw states materializing to hand them over to be used at open 
> is not feasible (at least without spilling to disk)
> So, I would propose to fuse the loops here:
> https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-streaming-java/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/streaming/runtime/tasks/StreamTask.java#L435,L436
> Into a single loop that calls initalizeState and immediately open.
