I haven't given any deep thought to this issue, but I remember us discussing
them over beer :-)
I think one idea was making sure (somehow) that requests traveling over the same
edge of a geom graph (in the same direction) do it using the same queue/thread.
Another idea was to bring some netgraph-like optimization where some (carefully
chosen) geom vertices pass requests by a direct call instead of requeuing.
