Description (last modified by daira)

We need to distinguish between directories and immutable files; it should be safe to upload immutable files in parallel, but modifications to directories should remain serialized.

Daira and David discussed uploader design with Brian Warner and he suggested our FIFO queue design where the elements are consumed by N-upload-slots. We made the explicit FIFO queue drop uploader implementation with just one "upload slot". We should be able to make a very simple modification to our current design to achieve this multiple upload slots.
