Has anyone ever written a transport for MINA based on pre-1.4 Sockets and the SocketFactory interface? I see that there is a package for an additional 'socket' transport called 'bio' but it appears to have never contained any code.
We wrote one as an experiment, to prove or disprove the wild rumour that NIO can be slower than BIO for a small number of connections. It didn't have all the features (e.g idle notifications) but it worked well enough for us to run our tests. We could not find any case where BIO was faster the NIO. We don't maintain the code any longer although perhaps we could dig it out our svn if anyone was really interested. What is your interest in BIO? RG
