Perhaps this is more sophisticated than we can do, but it would seem
that the ideal design is to allow RDATA to take precedence over ODATA
but only up to a certain %, say 10%.  So if there are no errors, RDATA
consumes 0% and ODATA gets 100%, but if the network or clients are
unreliable, the RDATA consumes more, but only up to a safe limit. The
RDATA limit could probably be hardcoded for almost all cases.
