About poller
By default, gnet
utilizes the standard package golang.org/x/sys/unix
to implement pollers with epoll
or kqueue
, where a HASH MAP of fd->conn
is introduced to help retrieve connections by file descriptors returned from pollers, but now the user can run go build
with build tags poll_opt
, like this: go build -tags=poll_opt
, and gnet
then switch to the optimized implementations of pollers that invoke the system calls of epoll
or kqueue
directly and add file descriptors to the interest list along with storing the corresponding connection pointers into epoll_data
or kevent
, in which case gnet
can get rid of the HASH MAP of fd->conn
and regain each connection pointer by the conversion of void*
pointer in the I/O event-looping. In theory, it ought to achieve a higher performance with this optimization.
See #230 for code details.
About ring-buffer
Adjust the growth strategy of ring-buffer, make it go more smoothly rather than simply doubling up (which may waste a huge amount of memory) in each buffer scaling. ccd37f fd8d27
