Btw, I am not requesting any changes, pr looks good to me for it defined
purpose.
Just wonder how to config easily. Now I think about this a bit more. Will
it be better if we expose `queue size` to the user instead of `queue limit
(number)`, thus, Inside of the FKP class, define an integer recordSize, and
inside of the invoke function, do a moving average calculation of the
recordSize with `serialized.remaining()` dynamically.
