Hello, I wrote a simple , user space program (in "C") which opens 400 UDP sockets ; each of them sends a message. I saw in the sniffer that many packets are not sent.
I am working with 2.4.20-8 kernel. I am creating 400 DIFFERENT instances of socket in the usual way : socket(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,0). I keep these in an array. I do bind each of them to a different port. Each of the calls to socket() and bind() returns success. Then I call sendto(). Wach of them sends a 160 bytes buffer (the buffer_len is 160). I see in the sniffer that only about 100 are sent (the 100 first ones). Any reason for that ? I of course can do sleep between the calls to sendTo () to avoid it, but I don't want because it is against my target (to send as quickly as possible). What is the reason for that ? is there some kernel parameter which I should set (through /proc or in any other way) to improve the result ? Doing the same in Java gives full success I think that my machine is strong enough for that (500 MB of RAM an 2.6 Mhz processor).
