Mediator scalability issues (@Jakub Koci)
AFJ as a mediator. Needed by edge agents.
More than 5 clients causes failures, if you start 10 then maybe 1 or 2 will timeout during provisioning
Do we have a guide for configuring an AFJ mediator?
Latest version fixes 15 second timeout

Timo has done some work with ACA-py mediator, scaling to millions of agents
