Hello,

I was wondering what the performance of the server component might be on a dual processor (2.8Ghz Xeons) with 4GB of memory. On the website it was quoted at over 75/second for non-SSL and over 50/second for SSL.

Is this limitation just based on the horsepower of the machine? Can I start two copies of the server to increase performance? Does the server automatically take advantage of multi-processors?

Thanks for any help!

Hi,
1. No, this is not a machine limitation, but a bottleneck with Winsock. Also, this number will decrease the more processing is done on each connection.

2. Yes, you can use multiple servers, but they would have to listen on different ports.

3. No, the component is not processor-aware.

Hope this addresses your questions,

Is this for incoming connections only, or outgoing as well?

I have an app that runs over 150 outgoing SSL connections simultaneously (sending and receiving async).

Am I talking apples and oranges?

Hi,
I assume you are talking about Tcp components connecting to various servers.
This limitation is on the Server component listening on a specific port.

Tcp components connecting to a single remote server on a single port. But all outgoing from my end, not incoming on a server.
