I mean, if someone sends a burst of requests and overflows the queue
(short-term), it would cause a drop of several packets and a reconnect, taking
the server down for a short while (.5s). If it would be possible to do it often
enough, then it would make the server unresponsive.

Or does it sound unlikely to happen?

Thanks
