Awesome. :) Mircea, are you going to finish up my patch, make the staggering timeout configurable, etc?

When I looked on the per-node maximum, in t_825 there was only one node with the 219 threads (as the max), others were usually around 25, few around 40. On the contrary, in 5.2.0.CR3 all the nodes had maximum around 500!
