Overview
Queueing in Pipelines
This section discusses queueing for pipelines. A pipeline consists in a series of stages, which process a stream of data. Without buffers (queues) between stages, a slow stage will block the upstream stages from working, and the delay will propagate upstream, possibly all the way to the pipeline input, preventing new stream elements to be processed altogether.
