Salvage mplex in the age of resource management (#99)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
* fix mplex behaviour in terms of resource management

- memory is reserved up front
- number of buffers in flight is limited
- we remove that insane behaviour of resetting conns with slow readers; now we just block.

* fix tests
