> Every {{IntermediateResult}} generates a random {{ConnectionIndex}} which will be included in {{ConnectionID}}.
> The {{RemoteInputChannel}} requests to establish tcp connection via {{ConnectionID}}. That means one tcp connection may be shared by multiple {{RemoteInputChannel}} {{s which have the same ConnectionID}}. To do so, we can reduce the physical connections between two \{{TaskManager}} s, and it brings benefits for large scale jobs. 
> But this sharing is limited only for the same {{IntermediateResult}}, and I think it is mainly because we may temporarily switch off {{autoread}} for the channel during back pressure in previous network flow control. For credit-based mode, the channel is always open for transporting different intermediate data, so we can further share the tcp connection for different {{IntermediateResults}} to remove the limit.
