Hi,
I read a few days ago an article on LWN about SO_REUSEPORT socket
option. (http://lwn.net/Articles/542629/)
I found an interesting presentation from Google which describe the
mechanism, and its advantages.
(http://linux.dell.com/files/presentations/Linux_Plumbers_Conf_2010/Scaling_techniques_for_servers_with_high_connection%20rates.pdf)
As far as I've read, this option is "not standard" but latest Linux
kernel releases support it.
I've not seen anything in Apache about it and I was wondering if it
could be interesting and if it could be used in our threading models ?
Has anyone already tried to use it ? Any feedback or benchmark ?
Best regards,
CJ
