> Context: 
> We are using "individual" failover (fine-grained) recovery strategy for our embarrassingly parallel router use case. The topic has over 2000 partitions, and parallelism is set to ~180 that dispatched to over 20 task managers with around 180 slots.
> Observations:
> We've noticed after one task manager termination, even though the individual recovery happens correctly, that the workload was re-dispatched to a new available task manager instance. However, the checkpoint would take 10 mins to eventually timeout, causing all other task managers not able to commit checkpoints. In a worst-case scenario, if job got restarted for other reasons (i.e. job manager termination), that would cause more messages to be re-processed/duplicates compared to the job without fine-grained recovery enabled.
> I am suspecting that uber checkpoint was waiting for a previous checkpoint that initiated by the old task manager and thus taking a long time to time out.
> Two questions:
> 1. Is there a configuration that controls this checkpoint timeout?
> 2. Is there any reason that when Job Manager realizes that Task Manager is gone and workload is redispatched, it still need to wait for the checkpoint initiated by the old task manager?
