Yes, it was. With the reconnect code its possible to DoS a server, so the
connections need to be limited. I think the best solution is to make an admin
tweakable setting that defaults to 1 and you can set it to 2. Your recovery
technique won't be needed in the long term since its planned to have a store-
and-forward model so nothing is lost and its automatically recovered on start
up.
