Yun Tang commented on FLINK-17468:
----------------------------------

[~qqibrow] I think the async phase of checkpoint would only do one thing: 
writing data to distributed file system. No matter it's uploading sst files in 
RocksDB incremental checkpoints or just writing to output stream in RocksDB 
savepoint or FsStateBackend's checkpoint/savepoint. From my experience, if the 
async phase took too long, it means the performance of writing data to 
distributed storage behaves bad (indicates the poor performance of DFS). I 
cannot actually see the real difference if we track the uploading part in async 
uploading. Would you please share you successful story here?
