     * exception. Throwing an exception from an applier is very bad because it will stop the application of this state before it has reached
     * all the other appliers, and will likely result in another attempt to apply the same (or very similar) cluster state which might
     * continue until this node is removed from the cluster.
     * 
     * Cluster states are applied one-by-one which means they can be a performance bottleneck. Implementations of this method should
     * therefore be fast, so please consider forking work into the background rather than doing everything inline.
