# MaxTweetStreamQueueSize

Tweets that are streamed from Twitter are added to a queue before the connector processes them. The number of tweets waiting in the queue might increase if you choose to retrieve many Tweets, or if the ingestion server is not available (if the ingestion server is not available the Twitter Connector can be forced to temporarily stop processing). This parameter specifies the maximum number of tweets that can wait in the queue.

If the queue becomes full, the connection to Twitter is closed. The connector will then process all queued tweets and finish the task.

This parameter is used only in streaming mode.
