Remarks
Use the EventThrottle element to help guard against an unexpectedly large number of events entered into the application.
During each quantum, the generator gets the current set of events for each event class and counts the events. If the EventThrottle value is exceeded, the generator abandons the quantum.
If you set the EventThrottle value to 0, there is no limit to the number of events processed from an event class during a quantum.

Example
The following example shows a populated EventThrottle element. The value specifies that a maximum of 8000 events per event class can be processed per quantum.
<EventThrottle>8000</EventThrottle>
