I have seen too many WGs trying to build "lightweight" UDP-based application protocols that do not correctly back off under loss to agree with you here. It's solved IFF a standard transport like TCP is used. Not otherwise. (And even when TCP is used, questions like "how many parallel connections" remain.) Lars
