- poll FIFO occasionally even if just sending messages
- retry pending sends more often
- just before trying a new send
- as part of mca_btl_sm_component_progress
Maintain two new mca_btl_sm_component variables, num_outstanding_frags
and num_pending_sends, to keep overhead low.
Drain only one message fragment from the FIFO per btl_sm_component_progress
call (rather than drain until empty, which in retrospect everyone considers
to have been a mistake).
This commit was SVN r21551.
