+# PIP-406: Introduce pulsar_subscription_dispatch_throttled_msgs and bytes 
metrics 
+
+# Background knowledge
+
+## Motivation
+
+Currently, users can monitor subscription backlogs using the 
`pulsar_subscription_back_log_no_delayed` metric. 
+However, if [dispatch 
throttling](https://pulsar.apache.org/docs/next/concepts-throttling/) is 
configured at the broker/topic/subscription level,
+this metric may not accurately reflect whether the backlog is due to 
insufficient consumer capacity, as it could be caused by dispatch throttling.
+
+## Goals
+
+Introduce metrics to indicate the number of `messages/bytes throttled` for a 
subscription. This allows users to write PromQL queries to identify 
subscriptions with high backlogs but low or no throttling, pinpointing backlogs 
caused by insufficient consumer capacity.
+
+## In Scope
+- Introduce the metric `pulsar_subscription_dispatch_throttled_msgs` to 
represent the total number of messages throttled for a subscription.
+- Introduce the metric `pulsar_subscription_dispatch_throttled_bytes` to 
represent the total number of bytes throttled for a subscription.
+- Add `dispatchThrottledMsgs` and `dispatchThrottledBytes` fields to topic 
subscription stats.

Review Comment:
   Maybe `remaining_msg_permits` is more meaningful, because the value of  
`pulsar_subscription_dispatch_throttled_msgs` will keep increasing once the 
throttling worked
