<ul><li><strong>Tracker</strong> changed from <i>Task</i> to <i>Bug</i></li><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>New</i> to <i>Rejected</i></li></ul><p>This behavior is by design.</p>
<p>Applications should use UNIX stream socket or TCP socket or WebSockets to talk to local forwarder.<br>
The preference among these is UNIX > TCP > WebSockets.</p>
<p>I'm not aware of any library / framework that supports none of them or incur a <strong>major</strong> performance penalty.<br>
If there is, please point out, and attach performance benchmark that shows UNIX/TCP socket is a bottleneck.</p>
<p>UDP faces are only used between forwarders.<br>
Application shouldn't connect on UDP sockets.</p>
