I am the [Flink Jira Bot|https://github.com/apache/flink-jira-bot/] and I help the community manage its development. I see this issues has been marked as Minor but is unassigned and neither itself nor its Sub-Tasks have been updated for 180 days. I have gone ahead and marked it "stale-minor". If this ticket is still Minor, please either assign yourself or give an update. Afterwards, please remove the label or in 7 days the issue will be deprioritized.

>  * Local Flink Mini Cluster running from IDE
>  * Flink standalone cluster run in docker

> I'm using *ProcessWindowFunction* in a keyed stream with the following definition:
> {code:java}
>         final SingleOutputStreamOperator<Message> processWindowFunctionStream =
>             keyedStream.window(ProcessingTimeSessionWindows.withGap(Time.milliseconds(100)))
>                 .process(new CustomProcessWindowFunction()).uid(PROCESS_WINDOW_FUNCTION_OPERATOR_ID)
>                 .name("Process window function");
> {code}
> My checkpointing configuration is set to use RocksDB state backend with incremental checkpointing and EXACTLY_ONCE mode.
> In a runtime I noticed that even though data ingestion is static - same keys and frequency of messages the size of the process window operator keeps increasing. I tried to reproduce it with minimal similar setup here: https://github.com/loliver1234/flink-process-window-function and was successful to do so.
> Testing conditions:
> - RabbitMQ source with Exactly-once guarantee and 65k prefetch count
> - RabbitMQ sink to collect messages
> - Simple ProcessWindowFunction that only pass messages through
> - Stream time characteristic set to TimeCharacteristic.ProcessingTime
> Testing scenario:
> - Start flink job and check initial state size - State Size: 127 KB
> - Start sending messages, 1000 same unique keys every 1s (they are not falling into defined time window gap set to 100ms, each message should create new window)
> - State of the process window operator keeps increasing - after 1mln messages state ended up to be around 2mb
> - Stop sending messages and wait till rabbit queue is fully consumed and few checkpoints go by
> - Was expected to see state size to decrease to base value but it stayed at 2mb
> - Continue to send messages with the same keys and state kept increasing trend.
> What I checked:
> - Registration and deregistration of timestamps set for time windows - each registration matched its deregistration
> - Checked that in fact there are no window merges
> - Tried custom Trigger disabling window merges and setting onProcessingTime trigger to TriggerResult.FIRE_AND_PURGE - same state behavior
> On staging environment, we noticed that state for that operator keeps increasing indefinitely, after some months reaching even 1,5gb for 100k unique keys
