Piotr Nowojski commented on FLINK-31655:
----------------------------------------

I think there are ways to address problems with [~akalash] proposal, without 
adding too much overhead (also checking 
{{getWritingThreadTotalNumberOfSentBytes}} for the channel that we haven't 
selected?). I think both of your proposed solutions would be quite costly 
[~tartarus], adding extra synchronisations that we don't necessarily need with 
some clever heuristic.

I agree with [~pltbkd], we would probably need a FLIP, as this will be changing 
public APIs (either changing behaviour of an existing {{rebalance()}}, or 
adding a new one like {{loadRebalance()}}).

> In Flink, if the upstream and downstream operator parallelism is not the 
> same, then by default the RebalancePartitioner will be used to select the 
> target channel.
> In our company, users often use flink to access redis, hbase or other rpc 
> services, If some of the Operators are slow to return requests (for external 
> service reasons), then because Rebalance/Rescale are Round-Robin the Channel 
> selection policy, so the job is easy to backpressure.
> Because the Rebalance/Rescale policy does not care which subtask the data is 
> sent to downstream, so we expect Rebalance/Rescale to refer to the processing 
> power of the downstream subtask when choosing a Channel.
> Send more data to the free subtask, this ensures the best possible throughput 
> of job!
