Hmmm, this reminds me of a behaviour fixed in 1.10.2: This version explic=
itely avoids=20
sending duplicate ResendRequest(N:Infinity) and logs the message "Already=
 sent=20
ResendRequest. Not sending another". Maybe a newer version will improve t=
he situation.

While I understand Dales argument, not to abuse the session level for app=
lication level=20
recovery, this scenario could make sense in a fail-over situation.

BTW, a TestRequest with a unique has to be answered by a Heartbeat with t=
his unique id.
If you get this specific heartbeat, you know that the other side must hav=
e processed all=20
messages preceding this TestRequest. Of course, this does not prevent fur=
ther resend=20
processing at any later point of time.
