Hi all,
we have a parameter that permits to configure omfwd to rebind to its port
every n messages. I have begun to look at omfwd to optimize it. A main goal
is to reduce the send() API calls to one (or few ) time(s) per batch. This
conflicts with the current semantics of rebinding. My current thinking is
that a rebind based on send() calls is sufficient.
Does anyone has any concerns?
sounds reasonable, the purpose of the rebind is so that you can do load
balancing of the outbound connection with a network-based load balancer.
doing this a handful of times per second is pleanty (you want to keep all
receivers reasonably busy without overrunning any of them, expecting a
receiver to be able to handle a full second's worth of full-thottle
traffic is not excessive, and cycling through all the receivers once per
second should be enough to spread the load)
