    ok good to know @uce! Let me get back to it in a couple of weeks and make 
it right, now it is a bit impossible to find time.

> The current snapshotting algorithm cannot support cycles in the execution 
> graph. An alternative scheme can potentially include records in-transit 
> through the back-edges of a cyclic execution graph (ABS [1]) to achieve the 
> same guarantees.
> One straightforward implementation of ABS for cyclic graphs can work as 
> follows along the lines:
> 1) Upon triggering a barrier in an IterationHead from the TaskManager start 
> block output and start upstream backup of all records forwarded from the 
> respective IterationSink.
> 2) The IterationSink should eventually forward the current snapshotting epoch 
> barrier to the IterationSource.
> 3) Upon receiving a barrier from the IterationSink, the IterationSource 
> should finalize the snapshot, unblock its output and emit all records 
> in-transit in FIFO order and continue the usual execution.
> --
> Upon restart the IterationSource should emit all records from the injected 
> snapshot first and then continue its usual execution.
> Several optimisations and slight variations can be potentially achieved but 
> this can be the initial implementation take.
