I think this should fix the hangs from clients.  The code base is small 
so once I can reproduce a problem I can solve it pretty quickly.

The short pauses are part of the throttling to combat corruption.  We 
could get rid of the throttling and just deal with the corruption for 
now until we get the new console drivers.
