Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-9318:
-------------------------------------

bq. To be clear: all I'm effectively suggesting is we "hint" ... earlier.

OK, so it looks like my understanding of hints was incorrect. However this 
statement is still valid, and still a better course of action. If we hint 
immediately, we buy ourselves breathing room _without affecting availability_.

If this doesn't buy us enough breathing room, then blocking incoming writes is 
fine. But we should exhaust all our avenues that maintain our guarantees first, 
no?


> Bound the number of in-flight requests at the coordinator

>
> It's possible to somewhat bound the amount of load accepted into the cluster 
> by bounding the number of in-flight requests and request bytes.
> An implementation might do something like track the number of outstanding 
> bytes and requests and if it reaches a high watermark disable read on client 
> connections until it goes back below some low watermark.
> Need to make sure that disabling read on the client connection won't 
> introduce other issues.
