>Fair enough. Does the new scheme allow for dynamic allocation of >callouts? I noticed that was on the TODO list for the original authors. Yes, but it's still not implemented. I think that we should push this onto the client instead of attempting to do some kind of low water-mark early allocation. In other words, allocate a fairly small initial pool for most applications and then have systems like CAM allocate a callout on an as-needed basis. >Nate -- Justin T.
