Re: [gnet] Connection Buffer Backlog

[nalves equifax com br]

I'm running linux. I don't know the rate. I am testing a distribuited
protocol, emulating 100 machines in one monoprocessed physical box (that's
why I think I have a lot of messages dropped, don't you think?). Is it safe
to bypass gnet and call setsockopt directly? At first I thought that UDP
didn't have this concept of backlog...

UDP is best effort delivery, so packets can be dropped.  Most OSes let
you set the buffer size via setsockopt(), but GNet doesn't have an
interface for this.  What OS are you using?  What rate do you need to
send packets?
