Users can set it as large as they like, but it does use more memory and we are probably not as efficient as we could be.

The benefit of Jumbo frames is that they allow the same code path to be used for small and large headers - thus it becomes just a matter of configuration. If we can drop CONTINUATIONS in favour of jumbo frames, then I do not think this needs to be an extension. If we don't then I do. cheers -- Greg Wilkins <gregw@intalio.com> http://eclipse.org/jetty HTTP, SPDY, Websocket server and client that scales http://www.webtide.com advice and support for jetty and cometd.
