Problem: IPC doesn't scale well #41

Closed yrashk closed 6 years ago

yrashk commented 6 years ago

Using IPC means bridge has to run alongside the node on the same machine. This, at times, presents problems in terms of efficiency or coupling of deployment.

Solution: switch to RPC and remove support for IPC

Note that tests are still using IPC to communicate to the nodes, which is fine.
