The point you're bringing is sure valid and actually I can change the 
patch to address both issues, the one raised on the original thread (see 
"using IBV_SEND_SIGNALED in ewg from this week),  where Robert says 
"However, as soon as I call ibv_post_send() more than max_send_wr 
times,  it fails" so 1st we need to clarify that without posting a 
signaled WR the HCA will fail, and 2nd that the application can't 
consume back the resources associated with a send WR until a "later" WR 
completes.

Or.
