Equalizer itself exchanges messages over the network, to send task, images for compositing and swapbarrier commands over the network. In addition the application sends data for mapping and synchronizing eq::net::Objects. > Q2: Also, I was wondering how Equalizer processes several input > events.

The events are sent to the application node. The whole process is explained in detail in Section 6.1., Event Handling, in the Programming Guide.
