WebRTC streaming performance

[achingbrain]

The performance dashboard shows that the median streaming performance of WebRTC in Node.js is an order of magnitude slower than TCP.

We should look into why this is.

Support for WebRTC is provided by node-datachannel (we are using a temporary fork at https://github.com/ipshipyard/js-node-datachannel until https://github.com/murat-dogan/node-datachannel/pull/256 is merged).

node-datachannel uses libdatachannel which then uses libjuice so the bottleneck is in there somewhere.
