> As far as I can see this patch wipes out the request prioritization in the Loader which is the whole purpose of throttling the requests in the first place.

Really?  I must have misunderstood how the prioritization works.

Losing the prioritization makes obviously doesn't make sense, but counting requests at the loader level is pretty non-sensical.  Notice that all the folks who are peers with loader have to do a crazy dance to interface with the connection limiter.

I suspect the right solution is to either to move the prioritization logic lower in the network stack or to teach the loader how to read back information about the state of the open connection limiter.
