[jdev] XMPP for Mobile

[Gustavo Garcia Bernardo]

But BOSH requires more bandwidth (more and larger packets) and it implies
more battery consumption.  BOSH also puts higher load on the servers but
it is not probably a concern for most of us.

As far as I know mobile apps of Gtalk and Whatsapp don't use XMPP over
BOSH but over plain TCP/TLS at least as default transport.

I found this document interesting when I started using XMPP in mobile apps:
