Wei Zheng commented on HIVE-13249:
----------------------------------

Thanks [~alangates] for review. I had discussion with [~ekoifman] last week and 
thought it would be better to have a separate threadpool for that. We can 
revisit this and see if AcidHouseKeeperService is a good reuse.

For the open transactions limit, we just want to fail the incoming open 
transaction requests if the number from background counter is above threshold. 
So even if e.g. we let it in when under 90%, it will still lurch in and out 
around that 90% line.

> 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.
