> The RoundRobinScheduler prioritizes threads by allowing them to queue on a SynchronousQueue per scheduling bucket. These queues currently do not use timeouts, and we observed a cascading case where client retries caused the scheduler queues to fill such that latency was way above the client timeout.
> Allowing the IRequestScheduler.queue method to throw a (per-call configurable) timeout, we can avoid this cascading.
