----------------------------------------
I like this. Having consistent behavior should improve user experience! We just
need to document it in detail.
> punctuate with WALL_CLOCK_TIME triggered immediately

> Key: KAFKA-6323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6323
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: streams
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Frederic Arno
> Assignee: Frederic Arno
> Fix For: 1.1.0, 1.0.1

>
> When working on a custom Processor from which I am scheduling a punctuation
> using WALL_CLOCK_TIME. I've noticed that whatever the punctuation interval I
> set, a call to my Punctuator is always triggered immediately.
> Having a quick look at kafka-streams' code, I could find that all
> PunctuationSchedule's timestamps are matched against the current time in
> order to decide whether or not to trigger the punctuator
> (org.apache.kafka.streams.processor.internals.PunctuationQueue#mayPunctuate).
> However, I've only seen code that initializes PunctuationSchedule's timestamp
> to 0, which I guess is what is causing an immediate punctuation.
> At least when using WALL_CLOCK_TIME, shouldn't the PunctuationSchedule's
> timestamp be initialized to current time + interval?
