Transport protocols and bulk file transfer

[Ezra Kissel <>]

It really depends on the payload.  We used to have a limit of 64k, but 
that has been lifted with the possibility of one or more large option 
blocks within an XSP message.  The smallest XSP control message is 
simply the header (56 bytes).  The smallest message with payload is 56 
byte header + 6  byte option header + 1 byte payload = 63 bytes.
