I'd like to run a FR with more than 256 virtual servers/listening ports.
Why? That's a bit unusual.
When building and starting the latest source of the v3.0.x branch with more than 256 vs's/ports defined I get: Failed adding event handler for socket: Too many readers I traced this error back to the #define on line 37 of event.c: #define FR_EV_MAX_FDS (256)
Are there are any serious repercussions of increasing this and running more than 256 vs's/listening ports?
Not really. Thought with 256 sockets open, something like kqueue or epoll becomes a *lot* more efficient. Alan DeKok.
