[erlang-questions] SSL behavior!?

[Loïc Hoguin]

Hey,

The same can happen for gen_tcp. You can't assume what you are sending 
isn't going to be fragmented when you receive it, packets have a size 
limit (MTU). You need to either know how much data you are waiting for, 
or try to parse it to validate it got received fully before processing it.
