the only limitation of the fcp approach is that it is built on a reliable
protocol, so it's impossible to control the number of inflight requests
based on missed packets.

perhaps the real key to a 9p2015 that solves this problem would be
building it on unreliable transport.

by the way, i was trying to generate aan numbers.  but fcp
just breaks aan.  aan is currently transferring about 10bytes/sec.
