Kontra.

With plain UDP you are subject to DOS attack, lost messages, maliciously
inserted log messages, etc.
To eliminate these deficiencies you should build a reliable transmission
protocol on top of UDP. That is TCP, but you have made a lot of unnecessary
efforts to reinvent the wheel.
What is your problem with a lot of tcp connections besides having a big
output of netstat -na?

For the exact same reason we should investigate the possibility of having
SSL as the crypto layer of transmission.
