Thanks for the tip about the new libev -- I'll give it a try. I was grepping the libev source code for FD_SETSIZE (which apparently is set by default to 64 for Win32). Have you ever tried setting FD_SETSIZE to a larger value? I found this mail here suggesting that a value of 16384 works fine: http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@apr.apache.org/msg14069.html Recently I was testing epoll on Ubuntu and managed to get 100k connected sockets without problem. With the 100k sockets connected then top reported a memory usage which lead be to believe that an average socket connection used 9.5KB. Have you tried libev with large amounts of sockets? Do you happen to know what the maximum number of sockets is for Win32? -- SimonThread Previous | Thread Next
