Hmm? The protocol seems moot, compared to inter-node comms when r > 1. Protocol parsing just doesn't seem like much of a factor. On my laptop, I was seeing a 3ms response time against one node. I can't imagine that parsing was more than a few percent, no matter the protocol.

Is that even an option for Riak? I haven't seen anything about that. >... Cheers, -g
