I'm not talking about redundancy and scalability of the transport channel, but of my business stuff. > The UDP loopback network stack is broken for anything above minimal > transfer rates. For information, my personal transfer rate should be minimal enough, so I'm inclined to spare myself extra TCP or IPC sockets for the loopback case; that wouldn't fix the multiple sender issue anyway. > It has been this way a long time and can be easily reproduced with > multicast testing tools.

That's interesting. Do you have any pointers to discussions about the roots of this? All I could find was stuff related to the basics I mentioned earlier. -- Pierre Ynard "Une âme dans un corps, c'est comme un dessin sur une feuille de papier." _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
