Aldrin Piri commented on NIFI-730:
----------------------------------
The browser not responding I can consistently recreate.
# Queue up many files on a connection
# initialize an empty on that connection
# refresh the browser (page level not just stats)
# UI is blocked from loading until, seemingly, that emptying process completes.
Interacting with the REST API while the UI is blocking, however, is responsive
and immediate.
Will attach a thread dump

> Making changes to connections between NiFi processors is difficult when data
> is queued up between those processors. A workaround to this data build up is
> to stop both processors, reduce/set the FlowFile Expiration of the connection
> to a low number (e.g., 2 sec), then start the receiving processor to age off
> the data.
> A more user-friendly solution is to provide a "Purge" or "Delete" context
> menu option on the queues to remove the data and/or age it off immediately.
