If set, the client will throttle mutations in batch write jobs.
This option is for batch write jobs where the goal is to avoid cluster overload and prevent job failure more than it is to minimize latency or maximize throughput.
With this option set, the server rate-limits traffic to avoid overloading your Bigtable cluster, while ensuring the cluster is under enough load to trigger Bigtable [autoscaling] (if enabled).
