I have a question - bottleneck for TCP is said to the handshake. But that can be solved by reusing connections and/or multiplexing. The current implementation is 3-4x slower than the Linux impl and performance gap is expected to close.

If speed is touted as the advantage for QUIC and it is in fact slower, why bother with this protocol ? The author of the PR itself attributes some of the speed issues to the protocol design. Are there other problems in TCP that need fixing ?
