The SetThrottle() routine previously replaced its DelayToken every time called. This procedure was intended to keep our calculated bytes-per-second active instead of any other value that rocksdb's code might subsequently set. Unfortunately, The GetDelayToken() code within rocksdb also clears all timings currently in use and forces a big wait upon the very next write. This could happen multiple times a second under heavy load.
The code now retrieves a DelayToken only if one is not previously held. Subsequent rewrites of our bytes-per-second value now use a different API that does not clear current timings.
