I am getting behavior that I do not understand combining Http().superPool() with MergeHub.source. Here is a sample application
import akka.actor.ActorSystem import akka.http.scaladsl.Http import akka.http.scaladsl.model.{HttpRequest, Uri} import akka.stream.{ActorMaterializer, ThrottleMode} import akka.stream.scaladsl.{MergeHub, Sink, Source} import com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory import scala.concurrent.duration._ object Main extends App { val config = ConfigFactory.load() implicit val system = ActorSystem("test-system", config) implicit val executionContext = system.dispatcher implicit val materializer = ActorMaterializer() val request = HttpRequest(uri = Uri("http://www.google.com")) val sink = MergeHub.source[(HttpRequest, Int)] .throttle(1, 1.second, 1, ThrottleMode.shaping) .map { x => println(s"started ${x._2}") x } .via(Http().superPool()) .to(Sink.foreach { x => println(s"finished ${x._2}") }).run() for (x <- 1 to 100) sink.runWith(Source.single(request -> x)) } The output of which is started 2 finished 2 started 3 finished 3 started 4 finished 4 started 1 finished 1 started 5 started 6 started 7 started 8 My understanding from the documentation is that Http().superPool() will backpressure. However, after 8 iterations, nothing else happens. Thoughts?
