[zeromq-dev] On the performance of ZMQ_STREAM sockets

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outdated version of http-parser[1] wrapped in some C++ objects with naïve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).
