Here is the server code. Pretty much directly copied from the example,
aside from not having the the handler loop forever, and queing the
records instead of dealing with the directly.
After further investigation, running the client with a long timeout,
without the server, so that every connection will fail, produces
results much closer to what I would expect. Connections attempted for
each message initially, but not for all of the later messages as the
retry time increases.
The point is kinda moot now, since I guess not closing the connection
is the 'right way' to do this, but I'm still interested in why I see
this behaviour when the server closes the connection.
