Goal: Determine why the Jaeger Collector reports "spans dropped" metrics when the system is under concurrent request load. The Collector ingests spans via UDP or HTTP, buffers them, and writes to a backend such as Cassandra or Elasticsearch. Under high traffic, memory pressure or increased backend latency can cause the internal buffer to overflow, leading to
