> h2. Bug:
> Async Sink Base is too being flushed too frequently resulting in backpressure
> even when buffer is near empty
> *Cause:*
> During a write(), flushIfAble() is called, which checks if the number of
> buffered elements is greater than a batch size, and if so, insists that the
> sink flushes immediately, even if the number of inFlightRequests is greater
> than the maximum allowed number of inFlightRequests, resulting in a yield of
> the current mailbox thread, and hence blocks.
> Notice that this can occur even if the buffer is near empty, so the blocking
> behaviour is unnecessary and undesirable, since we would like the element to
> be written to the buffer and no blocking to occur.
