Adam, That sounds like a reasonable idea to try. We were looking at ways to use UNIX sockets instead of TCP sockets -- it was easy enough on the "sending data" side but not on the "receiving data" side (the 3rd party library we just want to use out of the box). However, FIFO may work. Thanks for the suggestion; I'll report back here with what I find. Cheers Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
