With that kind of load I'm not surprised I'm not seeing the problem with
my comparatively minsicule load. I wonder if it's that the write handler
is not being set correctly once the connection is established?

Hm. I wonder if there's something different about the NOVM version that's
causing this. I'll take a closer look at the NOVM code and see if can see
anything obvious.

Pardon my public ruminations. ;-)

The patch will not help with that, the only time it kicks in is when the
initial connection is refused by the server, in the comm_connect_handle()
routine. Once the connection is established, the connect-retry patch is
out of the picture.
