> Dispatch will allow its internal buffers to grow without bound if message 
> producers are faster than message consumers.  It would be possible to apply 
> back-pressure on senders using link credits but this has some pathological 
> effects depending on the message routing patterns in effect (i.e. well 
> behaved producers may find themselves punished for others' transgressions).
> A better approach is to use session-based flow control to put a cap on the 
> amount of memory a single producer can consume in the form of in-flight 
> messages.  This is better because it applies back pressure only to those 
> producers that are over-producing.  Furthermore, session flow control is 
> frame-based (as opposed to link-credits which are message based) which ties 
> the limits to actual memory use because frames are bounded in size.
