net-dev would be a better replace to discuss this.  As I mentioned in 
JDK-8357160 [1], I think it would be useful to know if it common for 
deployments to have CAP_NET_RAW/equivalent or whether the TCP 
implementation is more commonly used. If the TCP implementation were to 
re-written in Java (not hard) then it would be "virtual thread friendly" 
in the sense that waiting for SYN-ACK would release the carrier to do 
other work.
