Can we change these two `if`s to a single `when`?
> Automatic Back Pressure
> -----------------------
>
> Key: STORM-886
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-886
> Project: Apache Storm
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
> Assignee: Zhuo Liu
> Attachments: an simple example for backpressure.png, backpressure.png
>
>
> This new feature is aimed for automatic flow control through the topology DAG
> since different components may have unmatched tuple processing speed.
> Currently, the tuples may get dropped if the downstream components can not
> process as quickly, thereby causing a waste of network bandwidth and
> processing capability. In addition, it is difficult to tune the
> max.spout.pending parameter for best backpressure performance. Therefore, an
> automatic back pressure scheme is highly desirable.
> Heron proposed a form of back pressure that does not rely on acking or max
> spout pending. Instead spouts throttle not only when max.spout.pending is
> hit, but also if any bolt has gone over a high water mark in their input
> queue, and has not yet gone below a low water mark again. There is a lot of
> room for potential improvement here around control theory and having spouts
> only respond to downstream bolts backing up, but a simple bang-bang
> controller like this is a great start.
