Was thinking it would be great to use a multicast reliable datagram protocol
for replication; that would allow keeping multiple consumers up to date
without consuming multiples of the provider's network bandwidth. A decent MRDP
would also make for more efficient MMR at the same time. In syncrepl the
refresh phase would still occur over a regular TCP session, but the transition
to persist phase could include a multicast group membership. This may be
better suited to the ldapext mailing list, but thought I'd get some early
feedback here first.
