While this improves the situation, another evaluation contention episode
occurred this afternoon (evaluations 16920 to 16938).

Even though reading queries are cheaper, I guess that when 10 fibers try
to execute 50k read queries, there's some contention in the
communication with the 4 database workers.

I'm trying locally to spawn database workers dedicated to registration,
that execute the evaluation queries in a single batch. Let's see if it
helps.

Thanks,

Mathieu
