[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-12818) When writing to GCS, spread prefix
of temporary files and reuse autoscaling of the temporary directory
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-12818?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17423059#comment-17423059 ]
Chamikara Madhusanka Jayalath commented on BEAM-12818:
------------------------------------------------------
Marked this as a blocker for 2.34.0 since [https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/15416] is a significant improvement to GCS sink that we would like to get in.

> When writing files using FileIO, the given temporary directory has a subdirectory created in it for each FileBasedSink. This is useful for non-windowed output where the temporary directory can be matched to delete leftover files that were lost during processing.
> However for windowed writes such subdirectories are unnecessary and cause a common prefix to be shared for the temporary files. Additionally this common prefix varies per job and thus the autoscaling for the previous prefix is no longer effective, see
