OK, several people said I should just send this to -net so here you are. I have a few questions about the direction and code base for the FreeBSD TCP/IP stack. 1) Is there a published list of "TODOs" that y'all are working on to add/modify the system? 2) How different is -CURRENT from -STABLE?

Hi, I am wondering what is the side effects of increasing FD_SETSIZE beyond 1024? Our group have a propiertary web server software that handles a large number of sockets. While increasing the kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilesperproc gives our web server more connections, select() seems to fail if t
