RxJava2: Create an examples handing backpressure

Question

Since we soon will have RxJava2 here (#83) it would be nice to have examples that handle backpressure. Do you have any ideas for good examples?

yeah i've been thinking about this. Couple of points:

By default we should be using Flowables everywhere as good Rx citizens. Using Flowables inherently add the notion of backpressure but we obv. don't call it out explicitly.
That being said the pagination example, has a high likelihood of running into a BackPressure exception, which is why that's been handled there
the problem with having an example just demoing BackPressure is that it doesn't go in the spirit of actual "examples". it's more a demo of an implementation detail (which is fine and a great thing to know) but might have to stick to keeping this repo as a "learn Rx by example" vs just "learn Rx"

if that makes sense.
