Re: [Sip] I-D on handling large UDP responses

We might be able to reduce the number of 140's by having the proxy in

not generate a 140 for a request that had this flag on a Via.

This is interesting -- but if a proxy, P1, switches to TCP from UDP, and sends a 140, then chances are that all proxies downstream from P1 will use TCP as well (for the same reason that P1 did -- the request was over 1500 bytes).

So, a 140 should happen only once, and not at every hop.
