scott comer updated ETCH-10:
----------------------------
Assignee: (was: scott comer)
> runtimes cannot support a large number of connections
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ETCH-10
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ETCH-10
> Project: Etch
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: csharp-binding, java-binding
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.0.1
> Reporter: scott comer
>
> each connection consumes some dedicated buffer space and a thread, thus the
> number of connections supported is limited by those resources. in a practical
> sense, to a few hundred or thousand by threads, and a somewhat higher number
> by buffers.
> a new scheme is needed based on shared buffer pools and selectors. in this
> way the number of threads needed to manage thousands of connections is
> reduced to a few hundred, and the size of the buffer pool is just what is
> needed to handle the needs of the current traffic.
> this gives approximately 32,000 connections on a windows xp pro with 2 gb,
> and around 75,000 connections on a windows 2k3 server with 4 gb. different
> but similar numbers will be possible with linux.
