Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1860:
-----------------------------------------

But doing something like this would create a tight coupling between config 
params (it already does, the sink's batch size has to be <= the next hop's 
transaction capacity). I don't really know if there is a way to resolve this 
issue without such a tight coupling, but it would be nice if there was.

> Transaction Capacity was primarily meant to be a memory safeguard. It ensures 
> that we don't have queues which are massive and can cause OOMs. I wonder if 
> there is a way of fixing this and making sure a malicious RpcClient cannot 
> cause OOMs by sending batches of huge sizes
