Hi Steven, by default, checkpoints time out after 10 minutes if you haven't used CheckpointConfig#setCheckpointTimeout() to change this timeout.
Depending on your checkpoint interval, and your number of concurrent checkpoints, there may already be some other checkpoint processes running while you are waiting for the first to finish. In that case, succeeding checkpoints may also fail with a timeout. However, they should definitely get back to normal once your sink has caught up with all buffered events. I included Stefan who may shed some more light onto it, but maybe you can help us identifying the problem by providing logs at DEBUG level (did akka report any connection loss and gated actors? or maybe some other error in there?) or even a minimal program to reproduce.
