Enqueue count = number of messages sent to the queue
Dequeue count = number of messages ack'd by the consumer
Inflight count = number of messages sent to consumer's session (and are not
ack'd by consumer)
Dispatch count = messages sent to the consumer (dequeue + inflight)

I asked about the async sends because the producer flow control you hit was
the kind that will block the entire connection (instead of just blocking
that one producer).
