Is this enought ? No, this note is not about what your kernel can handle, but rather about further processing by nginx and backend servers. Main problem with fastopen is that it allows unintentional request duplication: the same request may be received (and answered by nginx) more than once. This is usually ok for static files, but may not be ok for various dynamic scripts and so on. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
