Challenges Large packet size One of the main challenges is the size of the Kyber768 public key share, which is 1184 bytes. This is close to the typical TCP/IPv6 maximum segment size (MSS) of 1440 bytes, but is still fine for a full TLS handshake. However, the key size becomes an issue during TLS resumption.

Chart 2: Bytes logged per second via Legacy versus Tulip. We can see that while the number of logging schemas remained roughly the same (or saw some organic growth), the bytes logged saw a significant decrease due to the change in serialization format. Reader (like logger) comes in two flavors , (a) code generated and (b) generic.
