Transport sessions cannot reliably last for 12 hours on the Internet. That's the thing. An application should never rely on that. 12 minutes are already kind of long, but 12 hours sound ridiculous. You can achieve that over multiple paths (MP-TCP was mentioned along the thread) with some higher level abstraction (also subject to eventually break) but that's it. This is the limitation. There's no way 'round it. -- Töma
