Mark Payne commented on NIFI-766:
---------------------------------

Dan,

Hmmm. Interesting idea. I can totally picture what you're talking about. And I 
very much like it. There are two things that I think may be a concern with that 
approach though (i don't know if these are legitimate concerns or not, 
personally - would need someone else to evaluate): would the 
computation/rendering of that be expensive? We already render quite a lot and 
for large flows can push browsers to the brink. Also, would it end up making 
the UI more difficult to see/read or would it be distracting?

I do really like the concept though of showing how full they are. Perhaps 
[~mcgilman] or someone who knows more about UI's can weigh in. And it may 
require trying it out to know for sure if the performance would suffer. But if 
neither of those things are concerning, then yes, I love it :)

> 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.
