I still think allowing a large number of binds like this is a bit
dangerous, because to avoid out-of-memory DOSes we will need to
restrict the number of binds in some way. And if the UMDs can't
gracefully handle the OOMS and retry with a smaller number of binds
they will break. And we're not allowed to break the.....

Did we end up keeping a max number of binds that we guarantee for
forseeable future?
