The expectation is that each MSG gets a response, yes.  SO it's possible I 
guess that you are blowing up the outstanding message list somehow.  A reply to
a MSG can either be an RPY or ANS*/NUL (That is any number of ANS frames 
followed by a NUL).  

If you don't need replies back, you can have the end getting all the traffic
send a MSG and send ANS frames back, as many as you want.  Ending the stream
with a NUL.
