You can get a lot of traction with long polling. I use that in a couple of places where we talk to Consul to avoid a lot of polling nonsense. If I could figure out one last spot (where it's buried behind a service call due to separation of concerns), I could remove a lot of the remaining jitter from a rendezvous algorithm (tell me when all servers have made a change)
