As you perhaps know, we only use TCP/IP (for server-server communication,
but also for the client-server connection) and we currently think more and
more about replacing the TCP client-server connection with a UDP one.
You mean you are thinking about creating a tinny TCP over UDP.
If you want to do that i'm not sure it's a good idea.
in "effective TCP/IP Programming" Jon C. Snader says
in
Tip 7 : Don't Underestimate The Performance of TCP
Tip 8 : Avoid Reinventing TCP
Ok, i'm not very useful in this conversation but
i'm not (yet :)) a network guru ....
I'm interest by answer from other people.
In a first step, we would like to know your opinion about this choice. And
in a next step, we'll do some test about ping/packet lost and so on to
compare TCP and UDP, and we'll need your help to do that.
