One worker per "hot table" seems like overkill to me; you could chew
up a lot of connections that way, which could be a DOS.
That you have a "foot gun" is guaranteed; I think I'd rather that it
come in the form that choosing the "hot list" badly hurts the rate of
vacuuming than that we have a potential to chew up numbers of
connections (which is a relatively non-renewable resource).

There are no "civil aviation for dummies" books out there and most of
you would probably be scared and spend a lot of your time looking up
if there was one. :-) -- Jordan Hubbard in c.u.b.f.m
