I realize that's going to require updates pretty often (once you open up the CWND), but I don't think that it is frequent enough to be a concern. I well know that HTTP gets used at these volumes more often than people realize. I'd rather recommend ChaCha for those niche uses though if the rate was sufficiently high. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
