It isnt clear from the way this stuff is written up, but the difference between tli and tcp is engine dependent, kind of like the PAGESIZE/BUFFSIZE - what they have is what you get. You have to read $INFORMIXDIR/release/7.1machine.notes or whatever their port-specific online document is. I did this - it took informix 10 days to get back to me, by which time I had disqualified the build as a viable short-term quick upgrade.
