QEMU implements a leaky bucket algorithm, where "iops_max" gives the size of the bucket and "iops" gives the refill rate.
Does it track in-flight operations though? Or just how many operations can be requested in a given amount of time?
If it tracks how many operations can be requested, then if the "iops" parameter is larger than what the server can maintain then the number of in-flight operations could still grow indefinitely.
I suppose I'll have to check the code. :) Chris
