UDP certainly seems like one of the most likely ways to deploy SCTP. Given how much pain various browsers (including mobile browsers) have caused me, though, I remain pessimistic about users doing anything en-mass unless things completely cease to function without it. They don't know the technology that makes things work, and they don't want to. They just (understandably) want it to work, and leave the rest to the specialists/experts! > > Note that our research Haas found that multiplexing itself may actually be >> harmful... it is multiplexing plus client assigned priorities that seems to >> be the winning combination. >> > > A priority header could also be added alongside an > HTTP request identifier. Certainly that could work too.. so long as you always get priorities with multiplexing, you get some of the benefits that we've exhibited experimentally with SPDY. Note that while multiplexing+priorities helps everyone, it helps high-bandwidth clients more (as they're more likely to be affected by head-of-line blocking). Header text compression is the big win for users on slower links. > > > If all my wishes came true tomorrow, Sctp would be widely deployed, would >> give userspace applications easy access to a representation of bytes in >> flight, cwnd, and other important connection properties...and would support >> channel bases priorities. >> >> The connection properties are interesting for varying server and client >> behavior to better serve the user.

As far as accessing that info, we have modified linux kernels that allow for userspace access to some of that information. We hope that we can communicate some of this back to the client (as servers are FAR more likely to change to a new kernel, etc. than the majority of users out there) and thus both sides can profit from the information... but it is just an idea right now. No implementation yet exists (we're too busy trying to open source and deploy what we have already!). -=R > > > > > >> On Nov 13, 2009 8:47 AM, "Ted Goddard" <ted.goddard@icesoft.com> wrote: >>> >>> >>> On 2009-11-12, at 7:45 PM, Thomson, Martin wrote: >>> >>> I’m also increasingly of the view that channels-based protocols aren’t >>> necessarily the right way to solve head-of-line blocking problems.
