It benefits also communication of large packets (when large MS-PAC or CAMMAC AD Data
are attached), so it is a better choice for IPA in general. Especially given we have
multiple KDC processes configured we do not want clients wasting KDC resources by
making multiple processes do the same operation.

Simo.
