Hello, I have seen a bottleneck in ICS with tens of thousands of clients: When a client is disconnected the TWSocketServer calls FClientList->IndexOf() for finding the index to remove the object! IndexOf is simply exhaustive search and it is a huge CPU hog when there are 30k clients!
In some other parts of our code we wrote we overcome this issue by using a sorted TStringList holding the pointers normally held in FClientList->Items[] in stringList->Objects[] and converting the memory address to first integer and then String and assigning it to the stringList->Strings[] (with the same index of course). Then we use a binary search function to search among the Strings[] to find the index and delete without IndexOf. It works perfectly!
