Alan Gates commented on HIVE-13249:
-----------------------------------
There's already a threadpool in AcidHouseKeeperService. This should use that
rather than having its own separate threadpool.
Once the number of open transactions exceeds the threshold you should require
it to drain a ways below that (maybe 90% of the threshold) before allowing new
transactions. This avoid it constantly lurching in and out of trouble.
> Hard upper bound on number of open transactions

> We need to have a safeguard by adding an upper bound for open transactions to
> avoid huge number of open-transaction requests, usually due to improper
> configuration of clients such as Storm.
> Once that limit is reached, clients will start failing.
