Sai Sharath Dandi updated FLINK-33817: -------------------------------------- Description: *Background* The current Protobuf format [implementation|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/c3e2d163a637dca5f49522721109161bd7ebb723/flink-formats/flink-protobuf/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/formats/protobuf/deserialize/ProtoToRowConverter.java] always sets ReadDefaultValues=False when using Proto3 version. This can cause severe performance degradation for large Protobuf schemas with OneOf fields as the entire generated code needs to be executed during deserialization even when certain fields are not present in the data to be deserialized and all the subsequent nested Fields can be skipped. Proto3 supports hasXXX() methods for checking field presence for non primitive types since Proto version [3.15|https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/tag/v3.15.0]. In the internal performance benchmarks in our company, we've seen almost 10x difference in performance when allowing to set ReadDefaultValues=False with proto3 version *Solution* Support using ReadDefaultValues=False when using Proto3 version. We need to be careful to check for field presence only on non-primitive types if ReadDefaultValues is false and version used is Proto3 was: *Background* The current Protobuf format [implementation|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/c3e2d163a637dca5f49522721109161bd7ebb723/flink-formats/flink-protobuf/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/formats/protobuf/deserialize/ProtoToRowConverter.java] always sets ReadDefaultValues=False when using Proto3 version.
