Hi,

Section 3.4 of the draft states the following:

"it is envisaged that further segment exchanges will take place within an 
interval of two hours since the last segment has been sent"

Could you please explain a bit about the basis of such a deterministic 
assumption? If you could share some pointers to any study related to this. 
There is RFC 5382 which kind of mandates that the time out cannot be less 
than 124 minutes. Does it drive the above assumption? However, not sure 
how many implementations adheres to the time mentioned in RFC 5382.

In the recent time I had been looking at the different efforts that has 
gone into improving TCP performance from different aspects under different 
circumstances since the early days. Given the short transactional type of 
exchanges, would it be also worthwhile to count experimental RFCs like 
"TCP Fast Open" and see how CoAP performs on top of it?

Hi Carsten,

Thanks a lot for your comments.

While we work to address those, it would be really helpful if folks that
have faced 'bad constrained TCP implementations', and/or have struggled
with middlebox traversal can share their experience.

Cheers,

Carles
