When you call cam_sim_alloc(), there are arguments for how many
concurrent tagged and untagged transactions the driver can handle.
I don't know how tags work in iscsi, so I can't say what a good
number is here.  Note that tag management is left completely up
to the driver; CAM will tell you whether or not to use a tag for
a particular CCB, but it's up to the driver to assign and track
the tag number.

Sorry, I haven't had much time to review the old one yet.  Sounds like
you're making really good progress, though.
