> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: State Backends, Checkpointing

>
> The {{CheckpointCoordinator}} discards under certain circumstances pending
> checkpoints or state handles. These discard operations can involve a blocking
> IO operation if the underlying state handle refers to a file which has to be
> deleted. In order to not block the calling thread, we should execute these
> calls in a dedicated IO executor.
