Your patch has been applied to the master branch. I have run a number of TCP client connect tests, to a very close server (speedup very noticeable!), to distant server (still some difference), and to a non-reachable IP address (because I was worried that this would block out management, but it doesn't - it just shifts the "delay 1 s" to openvpn_connect(), and makes it a "max 1s" instead of a hard sleep).
I have not looked into manage.c as closely, but from a quick glance, this also looks reasonable. Since we need a RC3 anyway (due to the redirect-gateway bug), and Arne's motto for 2.5 is "MAKE THINGS FAST!", I think this still fits into 2.5. commit b68aa00603332357e6c711e91c5b4ba04d78294b (master) commit d08b66f39cf80733a51e1607386dc4993faef09f (release/2.5) Author: Vladislav Grishenko Date: Fri Oct 2 03:53:19 2020 +0500 Speedup TCP remote hosts connections Signed-off-by: Vladislav Grishenko <themi...@yandex-team.ru> Acked-by: Arne Schwabe <a...@rfc2549.org> Message-Id: <20201001225319.25125-1-themi...@yandex-team.ru> URL: https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg21139.html Signed-off-by: Gert Doering <g...@greenie.muc.de> -- kind regards, Gert Doering _______________________________________________ Openvpn-devel mailing list Openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-devel
