Hi everyone, I would like to propose a change to allow the static configuration of leader and follower replication throttling rates.
These configurations are very useful for preventing client traffic from getting throttled by replication traffic during events that cause a spike in replication. Currently they are only configurable dynamically, which means they are only really useful for throttling replication traffic during planned events. By allowing these configurations to be set statically, they can be used to prevent client traffic throttling during unplanned events.
