The one thing that I am not too crazy about is that the upload
operation takes a long time. As in, we allocate memory, parse it,
then load it, free some memory ,etc.

I am thinking that perhaps of doing that synchronously we schedule
an tasklet that will do that. And hence an payload will move from
LOADED (or UPLOADED?) to CHECKED from a tasklet?

That can solve also the problem of somebody (ahem) having 'sync_console
com1=9600 loglvl=all' and with us parsing - it taking way too long.

Let me see what is involved in this.
