AFAIK the spout can just ignore the nextTuple requests. Are you trying to
save on stdout/stdin nextTuple traffic ?

> A. ShellBolt side control
> We can modify ShellBolt to have sent tuple ids list, and stop sending tuples
> when list exceeds configured max value. In order to achieve this, subprocess
> should notify "tuple id is complete" to ShellBolt.
> * It introduces new commands for multi-lang, "proceed" (or better name)
> * ShellBolt stores in-progress-of-processing tuples list.
> * Its overhead could be big, subprocess should always notify to ShellBolt
> when any tuples are processed.
> B. subprocess side control
> We can modify subprocess to check pending queue after reading tuple.
> If it exceeds configured max value, subprocess can request "delay" to
> ShellBolt for slowing down.
> When ShellBolt receives "delay", BoltWriterRunnable should stop polling
> pending queue and continue polling later.
> How long ShellBolt wait for resending? Its unit would be "delay time" or
> "tuple count". I don't know which is better yet.
> * It introduces new commands for multi-lang, "delay" (or better name)
> * I don't think it would be introduced soon, but subprocess can request delay
> based on own statistics. (ex. pending tuple count * average tuple processed
> time for time unit, average pending tuple count for count unit)
> ** We can leave when and how much to request "delay" to user. User can make
> his/her own algorithm to control flooding.
> In my opinion B seems to more natural cause current issue is by subprocess
> side so it would be better to let subprocess overcome it.
