That only happens if relays are to maintain multiple connections to the
same peer. Might be wrong, but I doubt ensuring they only have one
connection at a time (of course renewing should it fail) would pose any
problem nor much additionnal load.
On the other hand, supporting re-ordering, without any sane limit on the
re-ordering window size sounds very dangerous and prone to abuse to me.
At least, there ought to be an error code for client not able or not
willing to accept a chunk because of memory constraints.
