[Ben Greear:]
>Check my web page (see .sig at bottom). Its on the Downloads link.
Got it, thanks.
[My complaining about unknown delays in sockets on Linux.]
>Not that I know of. You do know that select sleeps if there is
>nothing available right? Other than that, I don't know enough
>about your code to make a better guess.
Yes. I use that delay as the pacer in the whole system. I also check to
see if the actual delay is much greater than the requested delay. I
see occasionally it being 2/100 sec greater, usually when I'm doing
something else on the system at the same time. Quite reasonable.
>How big are the packets you send between client and server?
They vary. There is a fixed header of 12 bytes, optionally followed
by other data, perhaps upto 1 or 2K in the extreme. Most will be
quite short during the 'build the world' phase, which is where my
concern is.
>Are you running between two machines? If so, try to benchmark it
>against bulk transfer (ftp).
No - they are all local on one machine.
