The dashboard's web server answers one request at a time, so converting a big
.nif (glom files up to tens of MB) held up every other request, flairs included.
- dWeb: Web::Defer hands a request to another thread; the reply is sent from the
web thread on its next poll (DeferredQueue). A client that leaves first cancels
it and the late reply is dropped. The synchronous route API is unchanged.
- Web::Shutdown closes connections while the state their close events touch is
still alive; the destructor no longer runs handlers during static destruction
(stopping the dashboard aborted in ~WSClient).
- WorkerPool: priority lanes, with one thread only for urgent work (flairs,
small models, textures), and limited background work.
- Scenery: mesh and texture routes (and the showcase's) convert on the pool;
thread-safe memory and disk caches, one conversion per model at a time with
waiters sharing it; zones are converted ahead onto the disk cache while viewed.
- Setting scenery_workers (0: half the cores, 2 to 4).
