Fixes two bugs found during self-correction before publishing: - /stream used Flux.interval(), which ticks on its own wall-clock schedule independent of downstream demand and threw OverflowException under a slow subscriber; switched to Flux.range(), which has no independent production schedule and can never outrun demand. - The event-loop-starvation test's first cut used only 8 concurrent /cpu requests as background load, which drained through the 4 event-loop threads well inside the /io measurement window and produced an inconsistent, sometimes-inverted result across runs; raised to 60 concurrent requests (matching the CPU-bound benchmark's own concurrency) so the load actually occupies the event loop for the full window. Also adds StreamBackpressureTest, a StepVerifier proof that the /stream endpoint never emits ahead of its subscriber's outstanding requests.

Counter-intuitive result, and worth stating honestly rather than forcing the expected
|
|
story: on THIS box, the two wall times are close, because Reactor Netty's default event-
|
|
loop pool (DEFAULT_IO_WORKER_COUNT = max(availableProcessors(), 4) = 4 here) is actually
|
|
LARGER than Schedulers.parallel()'s pool (sized to availableProcessors() = 2). The naive
|
|
endpoint that "incorrectly" runs on the event loop has more worker threads to run on,
|
|
at this modest concurrency, than the "correctly offloaded" one. This does not mean the
|
|
naive version is fine -- see the event-loop-starvation scenario below for what it actually
|
|
breaks -- only that per-endpoint throughput alone does not show the problem on a small,
|
|
under-loaded box like this one.
