Alex commented on FLINK-12958: ------------------------------ PR: [https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/9564] > Integrate AsyncWaitOperator with mailbox > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-12958 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12958 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Runtime / Task > Reporter: Stefan Richter > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Time Spent: 40m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Currently, the {{AsyncWaitOperator::processElement()}} is running in the main > task thread and blocks in {{addAsyncBufferEntry()}} when adding a new element > in the full {{StreamElementQueue}}. > The blocking of the main task thread prevents progress of mailbox events > handling. The approach via FLINK-13248 may help process the events while > queue is full. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.2#803003)
