Description

We have situations in which we log warning messages:

• Running low on memory
• Compaction seems to be hanging
• Connection blocked for 2 minutes
• etc

There's always some background thread checking these conditions.

1. don't want to spam the logs with messages
2. would like to see the message repeat occasionally because logs roll over
3. would like to know when the warning condition gets better
4. would automatically like to correlate the two states

A simple class to provide these messages, rechecks, and spam reduction would be a nice thing to have. Consistency would also be helpful.
