Stefania commented on CASSANDRA-9318:
-------------------------------------
If back pressure kicks in, then it may be that mutations are applied by all
replicas but the application receives a timeout nonetheless. The timeout may
even be already expired after back-pressure is applied but before sending
mutations to the replicas. So in this case, I think it would make sense to have
a timeout long enough to take into account the effects of back-pressure when
the system is overloaded.

> It's possible to somewhat bound the amount of load accepted into the cluster
> by bounding the number of in-flight requests and request bytes.
> An implementation might do something like track the number of outstanding
> bytes and requests and if it reaches a high watermark disable read on client
> connections until it goes back below some low watermark.
> Need to make sure that disabling read on the client connection won't
> introduce other issues.
