A doubt ;- )
Let's suppose i have two couple of related packets ( A & A1, B & B1). I want to start two different conversations (one when as soon as A is captured, one when B is captured). 
Now, if the packets are sniffed in this order:
A A1 B B1 

There are no problems because the function
conversation_find (pinfo->fd->num) returns A when A1 is sniffed and B when B1 is sniffed (correct me if i m wrong) 

now, let's consider this scenario (even if improbabile is not impossible)

A                    B                  A1                    B1
When A1 is sniffed the returned conversation is B and this doesn't let my plugin properly dissect A1. 

Shall I use a GHashTable? Are there any other ways of solving this problem?

thank you
