Description
Initial tests show significant performance improvements (bandwidth and latency) with the QUIC protocol. Lighthouse is capable of supporting this amongst itself with other compatible lighthouse nodes. We can therefore test this transport fairly easily and see the results.
This requires our own ENR standard, we also need to add some metrics that indicate the type of transport used in order to effectively evaluate the difference between this transport and regular TCP.
This will be fully backwards compatible.
