> I propose the following to avoid an IPC server being swarmed by too many 
> requests and connections
> 1. Limit call queue length or limit the amount of memory used in the call 
> queue. This can be done by including the size of a request in the header and 
> storing unmarshaled requests in the call queue. 
> 2. If the call queue is full or queue buffer is full, stop reading requests 
> from sockets. So requests stay at the server's system buffer or at the client 
> side and thus eventually throttle the client. 
> 3. Limit the total number of connections. Do not accept new connections if 
> the connection limit is exceeded. (Note: this solution is unfair to new 
> connections.) 
> 4. If receive out of memory exception, close the current connection.
