Would it make sense to include statements about latency? We recently had a discussion with one of our suppliers about application layer timeouts that fired while the request was still stuck in the send queue.
There were statements like 'UDP never queues' or 'we can't control the TCP send buffer size'. Maybe some general discussion of the interactions between application layer timers and transport layer retransmission strategies (like Nagle) would be useful. Wolfgang Beck
