By introducing the option
balanced: true
we interleave the initial ring w/ the interval divided by size so all calls will have some air between each call e.g. a simple load balancing.By default all calls to the
limit_method
will be bursted, e.g. as quick as possible, until the rate is exceeded.Then we wait for the remainder of the interval to continue. To even out the burst, an optional
balanced
parameter can beprovided to enable interleaving between the method calls, e.g:
interleave = interval / size
.For example: with an interval of 60 seconds and a rate of 60:
balanced: false
As quickly as possible we call the method 60 times, then we wait for the remainder of the time.balanced: true
We interleave each call with 1 second so we call this method every second.Also fixed in this PR:
Considerations before merging this PR:
interleaved
instead ofbalanced
as an option nametrue/false
providean
float/integer
(which also favours renaming tointerleave
)
