Hi Jason

Great to see this! Just a few small comments for now:

Could you please get rid of the "All Rights Reserved" (here, and
everywhere else)? All rights are *not* reserved: this is licensed under
the GPL. Besides, that phrase is in general dubious at best:

Yes, please (on the TODO) :)

FWIW, since you're using pointer rings I think the way to do this is
probably to just keep the limits in place as a maximum size, and then
use DQL (or CoDel) to throttle enqueue to those pointer rings instead of
just letting them fill.

Happy to work with you on this (as I believe I've already promised), but
we might as well do that after the initial version is merged...
