Finally got around to ask about this on -hacking:

(13:44:49) scn: i think the consensus was that we keep n around
(13:44:56) scn: and make n configurable
(13:45:03) scn: we discussed this at some point on some vdd

So we should

- not exit 1 if the discard fails - the vcl could still be referenced
- have a parameter for the number of vcls to keep loaded.
