Dan Bress commented on NIFI-766:
--------------------------------

Mark,
   I this is a great idea.  What if the background of a connection label was 
filled (left->right) indicating how close it is to applying back pressure?

e.g.

Lets say Back pressure object threshold is set to 10 for a connection, and 
there were 3 objects in it
then the left 3/10ths of the label could be shaded gray

if there were 6 objects
the left 6/10ths of the label could be shaded gray

if there are 10 objects or more
the whole label could be shaded a gray(or another color) or maybe have a 
warning/bulletin label attached to it indicating that back pressure happened.

This might be better illustrated with pictures... If what I am describing isn't 
clear i'll try and gen up some PNGs

> UI should indicate when backpressure is configured for a Connection

> It is sometimes unclear why a Processor is not running, if it is due to 
> backpressure. Recommend we add an icon to the Connection label to indicate 
> that backpressure is configured. If backpressure is "applied" (i.e., the 
> backpressure threshold has been reached), that icon should be highlighted 
> somehow.
