Protocol itself is ok, the problem is that it is tunneled inside TCP, so on top of TCP SYN/ACKs you have HTTPs certificate exchange and then cypher negotiation

Protocol itself is ok, the problem is that it is tunneled inside TCP, so on top of TCP SYN/ACKs you have HTTPs certificate exchange and then cypher negotiation just to establish connection. Once established the cypher becomes another slowdown.
