Why not have tcp simply not register on each connection, but on

I'm not sure that helps solve the problem. Even with only a few
hundred clients, with MPI-IO, a new process on each node is going
to connect to the server. Over time, a different client port
number could be used, so the count of "peers" could still grow into
the hundreds of thousands.
I see what you mean. I was not thinking of the large number of
available ports that the client could use and that would generate
separate client peernames. :-)
