If the one client of the renderfarm gets a chance of uploading, it will
upload much more outstanding work though, than a single client that has
just one tileset ready. So, I don't see it as a big problem. If there is
more client render capacity than the server disk can take *somebody*
will have to wait, no matter how often you check if there is a slot open.

see above.
