Description

In our production cluster we had quite a problem adding new nodes to the cluster. One of the main issues was dealing with spikes in load during the production day causing streaming of data to fail.

Changing this value has helped us deal with this:

We use 200 vs 2, I think it would be generally useful and low risk change for people using 1.2
