    I think it's not so efficient to use a `ArrayBlockingQueue` as the basis 
for the implementation because we don't need protection against concurrency. I 
think it would be great if we could use `ArrayDeque` instead.

> For a long running stream processing job, absolute numbers of retries don't 
> make much sense: The job will accumulate transient errors over time and will 
> die eventually when thresholds are exceeded. Rate limits are better suited in 
> this scenario: A job should only die, if it fails too often in a given time 
> frame. To better overcome transient errors, retry delays could be used, as 
> suggested in other issues.
> Absolute numbers of retries can still make sense, if failing operators don't 
> make any progress at all. We can measure progress by OperatorState changes 
> and by observing output, as long as the operator in question is not a sink. 
> If operator state changes and/or operator produces output, we can assume it 
> makes progress.
> As an example, let's say we configured a retry rate limit of 10 retries per 
> hour and a non-sink operator A. If the operator fails once every 10 minutes 
> and produces output between failures, it should not lead to job termination. 
> But if the operator fails 11 times in an hour or does not produce output 
> between 11 consecutive failures, job should be terminated.
