That's really cool and directly affects my current work project. I'm developing (have developed, actually) a multi-threaded, 5000+ member VoIP/SIP conferencing server called Nconnect. It a primarily UDP application running on FreeBSD 7. This generates and receives about 250,000 UDP packets a second, with 200 byte packets, resulting in about 400Mbps of traffic in each direction. The current bottleneck is the kernel UDP processing. It should be possible to scale to 10000+ members if kernel UDP processing had optimal concurrency. Anyway, thumbs up (and not for the middle-eastern meaning :-)) - I'm looking forward to the MFC. -DG Dr. David G.
