more stable transportation
- [GH2323] To reduce the connection creation overhead and make raft transportation more efficient and stable, etcd now keeps long term connections with other peers.
- [GH2620] To reduce the raft command commit latency, each raft append message now attached with a commit index. The commit latency is reduced from 100ms to 1ms under light load (<100 writes/second).
- [GH2544] etcd/raft now provides better internal flow control. It significantly reduce the possibility of raft message loss, and improves the cpu/memory efficiency.
