Thomas Weise commented on APEXCORE-570: --------------------------------------- >From the JIRA description, this sounds like a combination of backpressure with >configurable limit on the queue. For the intra-process case the queue capacity >can be set. For buffer server, it will spill over to disk, hence the upstream >operator will produce at the speed of spooling. Are you thinking of a capacity >limit here? > Prevent upstream operators from getting too far ahead when downstream > operators are slow > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: APEXCORE-570 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-570 > Project: Apache Apex Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Pramod Immaneni > Assignee: Pramod Immaneni > > If the downstream operators are slower than upstream operators then the > upstream operators will get ahead and the gap can continue to increase. > Provide an option to slow down or temporarily pause the upstream operators > when they get too far ahead. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
