Piyush Goyal created FLINK-12681: ------------------------------------ Summary: Make SimpleCounter thread-safe. Key: FLINK-12681 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12681 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Piyush Goyal
While adding metrics to Elasticsearch connector we noticed that the SimpleCounter which seems like the main implementation of Counter interface is not thread-safe. It makes it tricky/expensive to use it in a multi-threaded context. It should be a very simple change to make it thread-safe, and the performance benefit (if any) of keeping it thread-unsafe doesn't seem worth the extra care to use it in a multithreaded context.
