Roland,

I guess there's some tradeoff here between the time connection recovery 
would take when the ULPs does wait for the timewait event vs the risk of 
getting into the target considering the REQ as stale and rejecting. Does 
SRP just wait for the event, or the new connection is established in 
parallel, which also means it would use a different QP number always.

Or.
