T/TCP
- Would help by:
- Reducing packet exchanges on opens (which are not flow controlled)
- Reduce latency to end user (bored users == hitting stop buttons on browsers)
- Is a better match for current HTTP than once persistent connections are deployed
- A net gain in any case
- Concerns:
- uses some state between connections
- Must understand consequences on big Web server systems
- Must fully understand congestion consequences, and potential performance cliffs
- Unlikely to help in short term due to deployment time
