Sorry for the crosspost. I asked this question on stackoverflow and asked a few of my buddies but have gotten no useful input.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11728933/node-js-simulating-multiple-tcp-clients-with-delays-and-getting-blocking-behavio I'm trying to build a testing tool for an app server that has both tcp and http apis. The app server is a proxy server that manages a bunch of tcp clients and distributes the http requests to these clients, and then returns their responses. The current testing setup is to do M iterations where we send a message to all N tcp clients. The basic version works, but when I introduce a delay in the tcp client responses using SetTimeout, the system starts getting timeouts for the http requests. I assume the problem is either: A) tcp client delays block B) http requests block Here's the http request statistics I get for 2 tcp clients, 2 http requests for each: No delay: client 0: rid=b9090ff65d5e, start=1343767505729, end=1343767505745, delay=0, rtime=16 client 1: rid=3950e73488cc, start=1343767505731, end=1343767505742, delay=0, rtime=11 client 0: rid=d895fd739389, start=1343767506732, end=1343767506738, delay=0, rtime=6 client 1: rid=519ffa323c42, start=1343767506733, end=1343767506737, delay=0, rtime=4 rand(0-100) ms delay: client 0: rid=406b42e027eb, start=1343767610712, end=1343767610736, delay=45, rtime=-21 client 1: rid=b1d8ce2a22a5, start=1343767610713, end=undefined, delay=14, rtime=NaN client 0: rid=7e1e3c54d698, start=1343767611714, end=1343767611756, delay=36, rtime=6 client 1: rid=bcf21941fa1d, start=1343767611714, end=undefined, delay=41, rtime=NaN Thanks in advance for any ideas! -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
