    If throw `IOException` directly here, `onSenderBacklog()` and `onBuffer()` 
methods should both declare to throw this exception, and all the related upper 
methods have to handle this exception.
    
    I will consider this issue and may modify it along time the distribution of 
floating buffers above.
    BTW, all the other comments have been fixed.
