Actually, no. Everybody offloads ether-frame packetization and TCP re-segmentation to the NIC, talking 64kB TCP segments across the NIC/OS boundary. Precisely because of the packetization cost. -- Jeremy _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
