Ariel Weisberg commented on CASSANDRA-9237:
-------------------------------------------

One of my get out of jail free ideas was to use SCTP on the large message 
connection. Large messages might not notice any overhead from SCTP. SCTP and 
the implementation in OpenJDK is kind of an unknown though. SCTP allegedly 
handles head of line blocking issues.

Disadvantage is that I don't see a way to upgrade a connection to SCTP after 
the fact, it would require an additional listening port, and it doesn't have an 
old IO implementation.

> Gossip goes over the small message socket where small is 64k which isn't 
> particularly small. This is done for performance to keep most traffic on one 
> hot socket.
