I have to eval libevent performance on our platform in the company where I
work. Is there a simple kqeue based simple http server (or even an echo server
would do) that I can get started on and make modifications with
our logic and test its performance.
Also, are there any performance quantitative comparison between libevent 2.x
and libevent1.4.x versions. I do know that libevent 2.x behaves better
than libevent 1.4.12 but not sure by how much? I did see this on
http://google-opensource.blogspot.in/2010/01/libevent-20x-like-libevent-14x-only.html
but no other details "Preliminary results around April 2009 indicated
that the rewritten
codebase had improved our large-payload HTTP benchmark performance by
between 35 and 174 percent."
