Status: Unconfirmed Owner: ---- Labels: Type-Bug Pri-2 OS-All Area-Misc New issue 24699 by kartik.vad: Feature request: Support HTTP over SCTP http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24699
It would be good for Chrome to support HTTP over SCTP ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCTP ), since it supports multiple streams within a single physical connection without the head-of-line blocking problem that TCP suffers, especially over noisy wireless links that are becoming common nowadays in some places, at least. I often browse the web on an EDGE connection (via tethering, which my carrier officially supports) and many of my friends at Bangalore are getting CDMA/WiMax modems. On such noisy channels, SCTP can help with the head-of-line blocking problem. A relevant RFC is http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-natarajan-http-over-sctp-02 .
