The WebSocket RFC states the following in the [Data Frame Section] (https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455#section-5.2) when describing the Payload Length:
If 127, the following 8 bytes interpreted as a 64-bit unsigned integer (the most significant bit MUST be 0) are the payload length.
I have two questions:
- Is there a particular reason why the
most significant bit must be 0? - Does this makes the maximum size of a single frame
