Throttling component
The throttler components allows you to ensure that a specific endpoint does not get overloaded. It allows you to throttle messages and only let a maximum amount through per time period to the next component.
Configuration
The Throttling component has the following configuration options:

Example
The throttle component in the image above has the following configuration:
