---------------------------------------

On the sink side you have a max-batch-size; would putting that option/enforcing it on the source side as well solve the issue?

> Transaction Capacity was primarily meant to be a memory safeguard. It ensures that we don't have queues which are massive and can cause OOMs. I wonder if there is a way of fixing this and making sure a malicious RpcClient cannot cause OOMs by sending batches of huge sizes
