+# known (shnum,Server) pairs are sorted into a list according to
+# desireability. This sort is picking a winding path through a matrix of
+# [shnum][server]. The goal is to get diversity of both shnum and server.
+
+# The initial order is:
+#  find the lowest shnum on the first server, add it
+#  look at the next server, find the lowest shnum that we don't already have
+#   if any
+#  next server, etc, until all known servers are checked
+#  now look at servers that we skipped (because ...
+
+# Keep track of which block requests are outstanding by (shnum,Server). Don't
+# bother prioritizing "validated" shares: the overhead to pull the share hash
+# chain is tiny (4 hashes = 128 bytes), and the overhead to pull a new block
+# hash chain is also tiny (1GB file, 8192 segments of 128KiB each, 13 hashes,
+# 832 bytes). Each time a block request is sent, also request any necessary
+# hashes. Don't bother with a "ValidatedShare" class (as distinct from some
+# other sort of Share). Don't bother avoiding duplicate hash-chain requests.
+
+# For each outstanding segread, walk the list and send requests (skipping
+# outstanding shnums) until requests for k distinct shnums are in flight. If
+# we can't do that, ask for more. If we get impatient on a request, find the
+# first non-outstanding
+
+# start with the first Share in the list, and send a request. Then look at
+# the next one. If we already have a pending request for the same shnum or
+# server, push that Share down onto the fallback list and try the next one,
+# etc. If we run out of non-fallback shares, use the fallback ones,
+# preferring shnums that we don't have outstanding requests for (i.e. assume
+# that all requests will complete). Do this by having a second fallback list.
+
+# hell, I'm reviving the Herder. But remember, we're still talking 3 objects
+# per file, not thousands.
+
+# actually, don't bother sorting the initial list. Append Shares as the
+# responses come back, that will put the fastest servers at the front of the
+# list, and give a tiny preference to servers that are earlier in the
+# permuted order.
+
+# more ideas:
+#  sort shares by:
+#   1: number of roundtrips needed to get some data
+#   2: share number
+#   3: ms of RTT delay
+# maybe measure average time-to-completion of requests, compare completion
+# time against that, much larger indicates congestion on the server side
+# or the server's upstream speed is less than our downstream. Minimum
+# time-to-completion indicates min(our-downstream,their-upstream). Could
+# fetch shares one-at-a-time to measure that better.

+
+    Another way to look at this is maintaining a set of integers, optimized

+

+
+    Rather than storing an actual (large) list or dictionary, I represent my
+    internal state as a sorted list of spans, each with a start and a length.
+    My API is presented in terms of start+length pairs. I provide set
+    arithmetic operators, to efficiently answer questions like 'I want bytes
+    XYZ, I already requested bytes ABC, and I've already received bytes DEF:
+    what bytes should I request now?'.
+
