Review Comment:
   This is an old PR but why is backpressure taken into account to compute ObservedTpr? NumRecordsInPerSecond it self should be the observedTpr since the job is already under lag. I understand the theoretical reason for computing it as numRecordsInPerSecond/(1 - backpressuredFraction). However, clearly the job is not able to process the data at this rate as evidenced by numRecordsInPerSecond due to whatever reason.
