Threading the network-io
Registered by
Jan Kneschke
The proxy-core splits the life-cycle of the network handling into communication and user layers. Each of the two can run independently.
* the network-ops for all connections are independent
* the lua state is currently single-threaded
The network-ops can be threaded without interfering with the lua execution. By using a small pool of network-threads we can push data out in parallel. Several connections would be assigned (and stay) in one of the threads.
-> libevent -> event_base_*
