We did some work on the diff part of the header compression format, and are proposing enhancements to the choice of the reference set used to encode a new header set (i.e. the starting point for the diff). This is detailed in a draft:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ruellan-reference-set-definition-00

This is still work in progress, as we didn't have time to do enough measurement, in particular on long lasting connections.

Comments are welcome,

Hervé.
