Yep that's how I understood it - it's trying to prevent a longer delay until it's poll()-ed again. > This is very useful for replication consumers, especially during online init, > when the supplier is feeding you data as fast as possible.

Don't you know though, microoptimising for benchmarks is the new and hip trend. Joking aside, there probably are situations for now where it's still useful, but ifwe can bring in libevent and be event driven rather than using poll() we shouldn't have to worry to much. Another option is when we hit EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK we move the task back to the slapi work q rather than re-waiting on it in the poll phase. — Sincerely, William Brown Senior Software Engineer, 389 Directory Server SUSE Labs _______________________________________________ 389-devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
