Hi Chesnay, just one downstream: Sin (Source: Enriched Code) outcome is the right part of the following operator as in the figure; this operator is the exclusive downstream of Sin.
Thanks,

How does the P1 pipeline look like? Are there 2 downstream operators reading from Sin (in this case the number of bytes would be measured twice)?

Sorry, I totally missed the version: flink-1.6.4, Streaming API

Which version of Flink are you using? There were some issues at some point about double-counting.

Dear Community, I'd like to ask for some details about bytes related metrics in Flink. Precisely, I'm looking at bytes sent and bytes received metrics: what I am recording is the following:

I am reading from a Kafka topic A records with schema K using a source Sin belonging to a pipeline P1. The topic A is filled with K data using a separated pipeline p2 and a sink Sout.

Basically what I register is that the bytes sent metric of Sin - available through the Flink UI -measure twice or more respect of the bytes received of Sout. For instance, if my sink Sout records 10GB of bytes received inbound, then my source Sin emits between 20-25GB bytes sent.

Is someone able to detail how these two metrics are calculated? 

Thank you,
