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 > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-766 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-766 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core Framework, Core UI > Reporter: Mark Payne > Fix For: 0.3.0 > > > It is sometimes unclear why a Processor is not running, if it is due to > backpressure.
