if they are serialized and the posts happen one after the
other for each mount, and each one takes 8 seconds, then with
30 mounts that's 4 minutes.  that might be too long; the YP
might expect updates every 2 minutes.

could updates for multiple YP directories happen in parallel,
so if one YP directory is slow, that won't prevent other YPs
from being touched?
