On that latter topic: I do wonder if we might start running into problems with fd_set size limitations now that "master" supports TCP sockets. Eduroam sites (e.g. us) using radius-over-TLS and DNS-based autodiscovery could, conceivably, have many tens of TCP connections open at any given time. But an epoll event core is probably pretty trivial, given that Alan has factored the existing loop cleanly.
epoll is for when you have 1000's of FD's...not less than 100. epoll is rather Linux specific too. Cheers -- Alexander Clouter .sigmonster says: Is knowledge knowable? If not, how do we know that?
