The test client is a very simple libuv application that sends a GET request and basically ignores everything it receives in the response. I'm using the icecast-kh fork.</div><div> </div><div>I'm able to go up to around 9K simultaneous connections to the server (from two machines). The CPU usage is low, about 15% or so (on one core). However connections are starting to be dropped. Checking netstat i see many frames being lost. Increasing the transmit queue length helped, but still i can't go beyond around 9K connections. I have increased the file descriptor limits and configured IRQ balancing (even though the problem doesn't seem to be CPU bound)</div><div> </div><div>It doesn't matter if i run one or more instances of the relay server, the limit seems to be OS global so when one instance is running with 5K connections and the other instance is getting close to 4K connections they both start dropping connections.</div><div> </div><div>I assume that there is some other setting of the stack that i didn't configure so i was wondering if anybody was able to run a few dozens of thousands of connections on one server. </div><div> </div><div>thanks!</div><div>--zahar</div></div></div>_______________________________________________<br> Icecast-dev mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Icecast-dev@xiph.org" target="_blank">Icecast-dev@xiph.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/icecast-dev" target="_blank">http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/icecast-dev</a><br> </blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div>
