Investigate flow-control support for bandwidth usage (tcp)
Based on discussion in the TCP design proposal:
For quota failure, we should investigate delaying rather than closing the connection. Basically flow control instead of connection close. We need to figure out how that should be configured though, is that a quota or a flow control setting?
This may fall more into into the proxy's domain rather than the mixer. The proxy should rate-limit the tcp connection to the desired quota.
Should we move this to the proxy and/or mixerclient?
@geeknoid maybe?
do we have anything open re: resource quotas and deallocation (so that we could constrain the # of active connections)?
The intermediated API currently doesn't provide any mechanism for release quota, so its only suited for allocation quotas.
Is adding this support to the intermediated API what you had in mind with this issue?
