Avinash Lakshman commented on CASSANDRA-617:
--------------------------------------------

The heartbeats which are predominantly what take up Gossip state and hence 
compression really helps out here. TCP overhead is actually negligible and we 
can still restrict the size of the Gossip packet to be around 8K and then 
compress. But TCP suggestion was mainly for clusters perhaps in excess of 1000 
nodes. The reason I brought that up was because if we do it we can forget about 
it once and for all :).
