Yeah. I tried tweeking all of these, but it seems that once the
message is queued on a connection via _send() the message never gets
moved to another connection regardless of any connect/reconnect
timeouts. (This is speculation on my part as I haven't look at the 0MQ
code to verify this behaviour - but it appears that way.)

In any event, I still need to deal with a server failure prior to it
sending back a REP and that's something that 0MQ can't handle
internally.

Is there an easy way to dump the internal state of each connection and
show the messages queued on it?


Mark.
