> The current {{SerializedOutputFormat}} produces files that are tightly bound to the block size of the filesystem. While this was a somewhat plausible assumption in the old HDFS days, it can lead to [hard to debug issues in other file systems|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/bdd87cbb5eb7b19ab4be6501940ec5659e8f6ce6c27ccefa2680732c@%3Cdev.flink.apache.org%3E].
> We could implement a file format similar to the current version of Hadoop's SequenceFileFormat: add a sync block in-between records whenever X bytes were written. Hadoop uses 2k, but I'd propose to use 1M.
