I'm doing some test on SCTP and TCP and I found that SCTP is somewhat
faster than TCP when i transfer 300 kbyte on 1 stream than TCP. By some
reason the establishment of an connection for SCTP takes longer time
than TCP, not surprising, but then after 300 kbyte of data transfer this
extra delay of SCTP is gone. How can this be true, is there any
enhancements in SCTP that don't exist i the TCP implementations
available in a standard installation of LINUX. The network speed is
7,680 bit/s with a rtt of 310ms.
