maxSizeInFlight can be large (~100-200 MB) when (a) available memory at
reducer is high, or (b) when reducer spends most of its time waiting for
fetchRequests. In such cases, using a hard coded value of '5' parallel fetches
will result in individual fetchRequests to be bursts of size 20-40 MB. The
configuration parameter, allows one have smaller sized fetchRequests while
keeping the total maxSizeInFlight a constant.
This configuration is helpful when the reducer spends most of its time
waiting for fetchRequests to return. In such cases, we would like to increase
the maxBytesInFlight
