> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Start a cluster.
> 2. Start an ingest process.
> 3. In the HBase shell, do this:
> {noformat}
> while true do
> flush 'table'
> end
> {noformat}
> We should reject abuse via administrative requests like this.
> What happens on the cluster is the requests back up, leading to lots of these:
> {noformat}
> 2014-01-10 18:55:55,293 WARN [Priority.RpcServer.handler=2,port=8120]
> monitoring.TaskMonitor: Too many actions in action monitor! Purging some.
> {noformat}
> At this point we could lower a gate on further requests for actions until the
> backlog clears.
> Continuing, all of the regionservers will eventually die with a
> StackOverflowError of unknown origin because, stack overflow:
> {noformat}
