Hi, I have a question about nginx internals. How does nginx ensure high throughput? I understand that nginx uses many parallel connections by using epoll. But what about processors? Is connection handling spread amongst multiple processors to handle any processing bottleneck?
The reason I ask is because I am building a web crawler using libev and libcurl and my aim is to match nginx capability for throughput. I made a web crawler that can handle 10,000+ connections but throughput is not impressive. ~16Mbps on average. It was suggested to me on stackoverflow that this could be because of a processor bottleneck. Does nginx suffer from similar limitations? James Read
