I had tried interprocess communication before and found it to be slow (12 sec

Somewhere in the docs, there was a mention that it has latency of 2ms.
However, if you can point me to samples or provide other advise that make it as
fast as osl::socket, I'd be happy to switch back to it.
"Generic" UNO IPC with all its bells and whistles easily introduces more
overhead than any solution tailored to one specific use-case, but "12
sec vs 14ms" surely sounds broken. Hard to tell what's gone wrong there
from a high-level perspective.
Q2. Instead of using osl::AcceptorSocket and osl::ConnectorSocket,
I tried to use
#include <sys/socket.h>
int socket = (PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
bind(socket, addr, addrlen);
listen (socket, 5);
This would allow me use scalable epoll but I had trouble compiling it.
There should be no general reason this should not work. (It would mean
the code is platform-specific, of course.)
Q3. I would like to understand more about how these threads interact with
connection::read/write.
Is there an extra thread created for me per connection ?
write would be called in my user thread. Is the data queued for
writer thread ?
read is called in my user thread. Is it listening on some UNO queue
to which the dedicated reader thread queues data ?
Or did you mean that I should create a dedicated thread per connection
because read/write are blocking calls ?
Reading/writing are blocking operations at the OSL socket level.
