[zeromq-dev] LMAX/Distruptor code project

[Francois Saint-Jacques]

Hello there,

I'm guessing that zmq uses yqueues in a  `1-producer/1-consumer'
scenario. The advantage of the disruptor is that it avoids creating
multiple queues for inter thread communications when (>2) threads are
chained. This comes with the penalty that you have to explicit the
dependency graph (vertices are thread, edges are queues connecting
them).

IMHO, considering the fact that zmq is already using pre-allocated
arrays in yqueues and that it's a 1-producer/1-consumer scenario, I
don't think you will get a performance boost by using the disruptor
pattern.

Also, my port is _not_ production-ready and depends heavily on gcc
>4.6.1, or any other compiler that supports the threaded part of
C++11.
