Is inst a persistent object? Then your only chance to get this to work
is to find *all* objects that reference inst and mark them _p_changed.

More careful testing would show that not to be the case, I think.

The class is also stored in every reference to that object.

It's my understanding that although in principle TCP can handle huge
throughputs in practice many stacks haven't been optimized for that case, so
you have to either use a utility which opens multiple TCP sessions in parallel
or do something really radical like upgrade to the latest version of the linux
kernel.
