At the very minimum, it needs to handle connection starvation better.

There's no "fix" here; the value of 20 was chosen after careful evaluation for determining the optimal number of parallel connections. In a properly configured environment, it currently provides the best performance.


yeah... the trouble with that is, many environments are not "properly configured". Solaris still needs to perform well in non-optimal conditions.


The current transport system has advantages and disadvantages, and alternatives will be investigated at some point in the future, but for now proper configuration is important for maximal performance.

It could be enlightening if you put the evaluation data results up for public scrutiny. As shown in my email, when our environment was "properly configured", there was no performance difference in my tests.
