If I have a server that accepts tcp connections for users to my website to 
load the homepage, what happens when there is a fast publisher, slow 
consumer scenario? 


According to the docs, it will try 4 back-pressure strategies 

   1. Not generate elements  
      - I don't think its possible for incoming connections if I am 
      correct?  
   2. Try buffering the elements in a bounded manner  
      - What happens when the buffering overflows? 
   3. Drop elements  
      - Does this mean it will drop the incoming connection and the user 
      will get a 504?  
   4. Tear down the stream  
      - Does this mean the front-end node that is accepting incoming 
      connections has basically crashed and would need to be restarted?
