Hello Fabian, Thanks for the answer. However, my question is a little bit different. Let me rephrase my example and my question: * I have 10,000 unsplittable small files to read, which, in total, has about 10M output lines. * From Flink's reporting web GUI, I can see that CFMF and ContinuousFileReaderOperator (CFRO) are reported separately. - CFMF needs about 10 seconds to generate all 10,000 records (as you said, in this case, 1 record = 1 file split). - CFRO generates about 2M records per minute (which means CFRO is processing at the rate of 2,000 files per minute) * I set the checkpointing interval = 1 minute. In this example, /will the 1st barrier be injected into the stream of file-splits 50 seconds after the 10,000th split, or after the 2,000th one?/
Sorry for being confusing. Thanks and best regards, Averell -- Sent from: http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/
