doesn't need to know whether that data stream consists of one packet or more.
Note also that each *message* returned in a TCP response is preceded by a byte
count indicating how long the message is. So a client knows when it has all of
the data, or whether it should be waiting for more. Most TCP responses have
only a single message, of course, but a zone transfer (AXFR) response may have
multiple messages.
