Yes, I've read their docs.  It isn't optimal for us, although it will
do for initial experiments.  But for production I think we need
something more efficient.  One of the problems we need to solve is how
to avoid the costly encoding of buffer text, and still be able to
support the occasional raw bytes we sometimes have in our buffers.
