fwiw, I have been trying to get find a conclusive answer to the subquestion:
Do Unix domain sockets (either stream or dgram) support flow-control? The nearest I could find is http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1478975/unix-domain-socket-is-there-such-a-thing-as-a-busy-signal/1479022 but the comments seem to contradict each other. seems I'll just try it and see what happens .. /Tobias On 21.10.13 23:33, "David Stainton" <dstainton...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi, I don't know the answer to your question... I've been thinking about flow control lately. I recently wrote a little working prototype VPN in Twisted using IPushProducer and IConsumer interfaces but I have not yet implemented flow control : Here we can see how I proxy between TUN and UDP using producers and consumers: https://github.com/david415/hushVPN/blob/master/hushVPN_service.py Perhaps later on I could add flow control... by having the consumers pause the producers when need be. For now I just churn packets as fast as possible.
