Comment (by dgoulet):

 Here is a new branch. I've gone a bit insane but I think it needed to be
 done at some point anyway.

 The two first commits are untouched but 3 more were added that are related
 to this ticket because removing the adaptative algorithm changed a bit how
 the function works thus the refactoring that hopefully helps the
 situation. In the process, those commits fix open issues that are detailed
 and listed in the commit message. This branch has been tested in a chutney
 network.

 Need careful review: `bug4862_027_02`

 (No changes file for now, if we get some ack on this, I'll add them)
