> After the sender thread is woke up it can gather control and perform an attempt to send a message. But if there is no enough place in send queue it will call link_schedule_user() function which puts a message of type SOCK_WAKEUP to the wakeup queue and put the sender to sleep. Thus the size of the queue actually is not changed and the while() loop never exits.

Send queue limit is 40 in my case (I use a critical importance level) and when 64 nodes send a message at the same moment a congestion occurs every time.
