Grammatical comment:  "stored to" reads oddly to me.
I'd suggest replacing with either "stored in" or "saved to".

Subject: [Suit] Wording for integrated payload size

To finalise the information model, we need to address the issue raised at ietf106: how big can an integrated payload be? The suggestion made at the meeting was that no specific requirement should be made, but that the information model needed some text to explain the tradeoffs in size of payload. Here is my proposal for that text.


Best Regards,
Brendan


When an integrated payload is provided, this increases the size of the manifest. Manifest size can cause several processing and storage concerns that require careful consideration. The payload can prevent the whole manifest from being contained in a single network packet, which can cause fragmentation and the loss of portions of the manifest in lossy networks. This causes the need for reassembly and retransmission logic. If the manifest is too large to fit in RAM, then it must be processed modularly; first evaluating delegation chains, then the security container, then processing the actual manifest, which includes verifying the integrated payload. While the manifest has been organised to enable this type of processing, it creates additional complexity in the parser. If the manifest is stored to nonvolatile storage prior to processing, the integrated payload may cause the manifest to exceed the available storage. Because the manifest is received prior to validation of applicability,  authority, or correctness, integrated payloads cause the recipient to expend network bandwidth and energy that may not be required if the manifest is discarded and these costs vary with the size of the integrated payload.
