Rate limits.
This message determines the maximum rate that tasks can be dispatched by a queue, regardless of whether the dispatch is a first task attempt or a retry.
Note: The debugging command, RunTask, will run a task even if the queue has reached its RateLimits.
Output only. The max burst size. Max burst size limits how
fast tasks in queue are processed when many tasks are in the
queue and the rate is high. This field allows the queue to
have a high rate so processing starts shortly after a task is
enqueued, but still limits resource usage when many tasks are
enqueued in a short period of time. The token bucket
<https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_Bucket>
algorithm is used
to control the rate of task dispatches. Each queue has a token
bucket that holds tokens, up to the maximum specified by
max_burst_size
. Each time a task is dispatched, a token is
removed from the bucket. Tasks will be dispatched until the
queue's bucket runs out of tokens. The bucket will be
continuously refilled with new tokens based on [max_tasks_di
spatched_per_second][google.cloud.tasks.v2beta2.RateLimits.m
ax_tasks_dispatched_per_second]. Cloud Tasks will pick
the value of max_burst_size
based on the value of [max_ta
sks_dispatched_per_second][google.cloud.tasks.v2beta2.RateL
imits.max_tasks_dispatched_per_second]. For App Engine
queues that were created or updated using queue.yaml/xml
,
max_burst_size
is equal to bucket\_size <https://cloud.go
ogle.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/config/queueref#bucket
_size>
. Since max_burst_size
is output only, if [Update
Queue][google.cloud.tasks.v2beta2.CloudTasks.UpdateQueue] is
called on a queue created by queue.yaml/xml
,
max_burst_size
will be reset based on the value of [max_t
asks_dispatched_per_second][google.cloud.tasks.v2beta2.Rate
Limits.max_tasks_dispatched_per_second], regardless of
whether [max_tasks_dispatched_per_second][google.cloud.tas
ks.v2beta2.RateLimits.max_tasks_dispatched_per_second] is
updated.
