You can select TCP transport for a given program/procedure under SUNRPC.
Last time I checked, rpcgen gave you  UDP transport by default, so minor
editing of the generated code was necessary.  Nice thing about TCP
transport beyond no size limit is that the client doesn't have to wait for
a return.  This is called 'batched rpc'.
