HTTP over SCTP versus HTTP over TCP
Comparison of HTTP over TCP and SCTP in High Delay Networks
Below is a list of links to quicktime movies (.mov) that compare a webpage
loading operation for HTTP over TCP (left side) and HTTP over SCTP (right
side). The web client and server are Firefox and Apache, respectively, running
on FreeBSD 6.1.
Firefox and Apache were modified by the PEL research group for HTTP to run
over SCTP.
The loss values refer to the percent of TCP (or SCTP) packets that
were lost by our network connection emulated by DummyNet.
The first value corresponds to lost TCP packets; the
second value to lost SCTP packets.
The emulated path had a 56Kbps bandwidth and a 1080ms RTT, intended to
represent a low bandwidth communication using satelites from a developing nation.
HTTP over TCP uses a single persistent pipelined TCP connection. HTTP over
SCTP uses a single multistreamed SCTP association. When there is loss, the
user experience greatly benefits from the combination of HTTP over SCTP and
progressive jpeg images.
