OK, let's say there are 1000 people debugging network traffic at any time -- this is a dangerous subset of people to ignore, though, because they're not just the users of the protocol, they're the ones developing the servers, clients, and applications for the users.

Ok, I will give you a few thousand. Either way, it's many orders of magnitude fewer people as compared to the general internet population, who could care less how easy it is to debug data on the wire, and just want their webpage to load fast.2009/11/12 Julian Reschke <julian.reschke at gmx.de> Ian Fette (イアンフェッティ) wrote:The point of SPDY was to make the web faster. Billions of users requesting pages, want to speed it up. Of those billions of users, perhaps 100 care whether it's binary or ASCII. Using ASCII just so that it's easier for 100 people to look at the traffic on the wire without any "specialized tools" while slowing it down for billions of users seems like a strange tradeoff.... Hm. Are you sure about the "100"? BR, Julian _______________________________________________ hybi mailing list hybi at ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/hybi
