They may be the same, or maybe not. Almost certainly this is the result
of the SCA mitigations we've put in place. For 6512 @romen was going to
do some testing and report back, so I've pinged him.

For 6396 the answer may be to implement 6418 which should help quite a
lot. There is some doubt though whether we can get that in quickly
enough. Awaiting further input from @bbbrumley.

In both cases I think we should keep them open for now. I wouldn't
consider either as showstoppers though.

Maybe. Pinged @tiran for an update.

A comment in 6234 says that the foolscap issue was solved by setting
SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY on by default, so I closed this issue.

Probably, yes.
