While running Flink(1.6.0) datastream job with RocksDB as backend storage and HDFS as storage for checkpoints, I've encounter akka.pattern.AskTimeoutException while trying to do savepoint via cli.
org.apache.flink.util.FlinkException: Triggering a savepoint for the job e569cf53baecae9cb4fa794d590d670f failed.

I've increased askTimeout from 10s to 60s but I didn't help. Also, after exception, I see that flink created savepoint file of 2.4 G on HDFS.
I'm wondering what to do in this case? Increasing timeout to the high value doesn't look a viable approach once the state starts growing further.
UPDATE: I have the feeling it actually a bug with CLI or JobManager, as I see in the log that task manager is able to do all savepoints under couple seconds. Trunucated task manager log: https://pastebin.com/fvu4uhAf
