I m not sure that it will generate less traffic. Depending of the block cipher you use you still need to exchange keys (like a diffie hellman method). You can use static one but if you do it leads to security problems. On top of that most block cipher pad their message to avoid size attack. So it won't really reduce the amount of traffic unless you use non padded block cipher witch leads to potential security hole again. And I don't really see what traffic limitation you have to need to avoid using TLS ??

I can do that with SSL but due to traffic limitations is not possible. Is it possible to use block cipher and how? Does block cipher generates less traffic than SSL?
