> When the rate limiter is actually limiting the rate at which data is inserted 
> into the buffer, the synchronized block of BlockGenerator.addData stays 
> blocked for long time. This causes the thread switching the buffer and 
> generating blocks (synchronized with addData) to starve and not generate 
> blocks for seconds. The correct solution is to not block on the rate limiter 
> within the synchronized block for adding data to the buffer.
