Github user hanm commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pull/184 I like @anmolnar plan. To mitigate the stability concerns around `UnifiedServerSocket`, we can disable it by default. Unless I misunderstand something, when unified port is disabled via `portUnification=false`, there should not be any DOS or stability issues observed during your tests, is this correct? @ivmaykov Regarding remove port unification / unified server socket from this PR, that's definitely another approach, but consider we need add it anyway plus we have mitigations in place this would just create more work. Regarding concerns of the final release with this PR committed but not any of the #627 , I think it's a fair concern, but given we have the mitigation in place I think we can release in worst case (that this PR goes in but none of #627 ) - though realistically I am optimistic that we can get most if not all of the #627 in before stable 3.5 release.
