FYI, I just wrote a small HTTP server based on ZMQ_STREAM sockets and an outdated version of http-parser[1] wrapped in some C++ objects with naïve buffering.
I profiled it with "ab" and got some interesting results: - ~6K req/sec without HTTP keep alive; and - ~19.5K req/sec with HTTP keep alive. This is a super naïve server, there's lots more to add in there that will likely affect this performance, but it goes a long way towards demonstrating the incredible job you guys have done with this library :-D I have a few projects up on GitHub that implement some HTTP-related protocols (WebSockets, FastCGI, SCGI, etc.) in a way that are independent from the IO engine (FSMs for the win). I've been experimenting with several IO engines for C/C++ and hadn't yet found something that was simple enough to let me focus on the interesting bits. These tests prove that the search is finally over :-) I'll be wrapping that up in a ZeroMQ-based HTTP gateway in the upcoming weeks. I'll post a link to the GitHub project as soon as I post it up (should be very soon). [1]: https://github.com/joyent/http-parser Cheers, André
