/**
 * SECTION:element-queue
 *
 * Data is queued until one of the limits specified by the
 * #GstQueue:max-size-buffers, #GstQueue:max-size-bytes and/or
 * #GstQueue:max-size-time properties has been reached. Any attempt to push
 * more buffers into the queue will block the pushing thread until more space
 * becomes available.
 *
 * The queue will create a new thread on the source pad to decouple the
 * processing on sink and source pad.
 *
 * You can query how many buffers are queued by reading the
 * #GstQueue:current-level-buffers property. You can track changes
 * by connecting to the notify::current-level-buffers signal (which
 * like all signals will be emitted from the streaming thread). The same
 * applies to the #GstQueue:current-level-time and
 * #GstQueue:current-level-bytes properties.
 *
 * The default queue size limits are 200 buffers, 10MB of data, or
 * one second worth of data, whichever is reached first.
 *
 * As said earlier, the queue blocks by default when one of the specified
 * maximums (bytes, time, buffers) has been reached. You can set the
 * #GstQueue:leaky property to specify that instead of blocking it should
 * leak (drop) new or old buffers.
 *
 * The #GstQueue::underrun signal is emitted when the queue has less data than
 * the specified minimum thresholds require (by default: when the queue is
 * empty). The #GstQueue::overrun signal is emitted when the queue is filled
 * up. Both signals are emitted from the context of the streaming thread.
