> For large clusters, the 0.23.0 allocator cannot keep up with the volume of 
> slaves. After the following slave was re-registered, it took the allocator a 
> long time to work through the backlog of slaves to add:
> {noformat:title=45 minute delay}

>  have become expensive.
> Some timings from a production cluster reveal that the allocator spending in 
> the low tens of milliseconds for each call to {{addSlave}} and 
> {{updateSlave}}, when there are tens of thousands of slaves this amounts to 
> the large delay seen above.
> We also saw a slow steady increase in memory consumption, hinting further at 
> a queue backup in the allocator.
> A synthetic benchmark like we did for the registrar would be prudent here, 
> along with visibility into the allocator's queue size.
