That egg's empty, go find another one to suck.  I already made the
same exact point to Jason, in the discussion on tech-net.

If you want to make a positive contribution, please follow the
discussion there.  Reply-To: set accordingly.  (I acutally suggested
continuation-passing, a more general framework that could,
for instance,  replace aiod's as well).

I really do keep more than 128 nfsds busy (256 is more than adequate
for my specsfs runs, until I get another 2 shelves of old FC disks).
I suggested raising the limit; Jason suggested no limit at all, and
that' how we got to where we are.
