Incident follow-ups that also show up in Incident.io when this label is used.
If unbounded, a large number of HTTP requests may exhaust the SSG cross-shard semaphores. The SSG semaphores are doing their job, but the "failure" (not a failure, just a lot of HTTP connections hanging) is subtle. Make it more explicit by limiting the total number of HTTP requests in flight and any additional ones are rejected with a 4xx or 5xx status code.
