Imagine an outbound proxy handling numerous endpoints to the registrar, with one TCP connection to the registrar - if it passes any body size up to the registrar willy-nilly, any endpoint's random 10MB body will impact message forwarding for all others due to HOL. (heck, given the horsepower of some nodes, a 64KB body could too) Then there's also the reality of TCP not being exactly ubiquitous, to put it mildly, and the odds of a >64KB message making it not being too high. -hadriel _______________________________________________ Sip mailing list https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sip This list is for NEW development of the core SIP Protocol Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for questions on current sip Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for new developments on the application of sip
