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

> 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.
