Progress in the field of high speed networking made Gb/s transfer rates available which in turn, has lead to a debate in the research community on the suitability of existing protocols such as TCP/IP or the ISO/OSI suite over high speed networks. The problem is that when computers are connected to high capacity links, the real bandwidth accessible by the system is choked by the bottlenecks of the network adapters, the ability of packet processing per second, and the overall hardware and software system structure. The present protocol architectures seem sufficient for today's networking requirements. However, demands of future networks require some novelty in the approach to current structures. In the rest of this paper, we show some limitations of the classiccal layering approach in comparison with the capacity improvement that can be available when things are handled according to the needs of the applications.
