Is there a known and predictable limit to the number of sessions that can be created/run? Obviously there is the physical memory boundaries for the hardware, and there are limits on Perl's scalar size, etc. depending on architecture, but other than similar such reasons, is there anything specific in the POE kernel/session preventing it from having an arbitrary number of sessions?
I am not terribly concerned, but am just curious about the system in general as I think it rocks and I am enjoying developing a new app in it. The app watches directories and queues files to be processed in multiple stages (each a queue), etc. As our app scales the number of directories being watched (each as a session) and the threshold of the process queues (number of simultaneous processes allowed for each queue, each a session) can be set by the app admin, so I need to know if I am going to hit a spill over point and would need to restrict the threshold on the queues, etc.
Thanks for any insight,
Hi,
I don't recall any artificial number, so after casting the session id to a double I think you wil run out of ram long before the double gets too imprecise :-).
