> DWStallControl currently only checks if the net bytes used by all the DWPT 
> and deletes exceeds the stall limit (2*MAX_RAM_BUFFER). This is generally a 
> very good default but in certain situations we can exceed this limit even 
> without an ongoing flush. Stalling is used to prevent IW overloading due to 
> slow flushes etc. which should not happen too often in practice. With a 
> smallish RAM Buffer and a bigger document we can easily get into the stage 
> where we stall the DW without a chance to free up the memory.  
> I think we should make sure that a pending or running flush can free up 
> enough memory to unstall.
