Hi. I'm happy to share the current status of my Comet Server effort. With Artyom's helping answer on client side issues, I start to pour in connection for cppcms based comet server, long polling type. On Amazon EC2, I'm using M1 Extra Large Instance Type, with 15G Mem, 4 Core(8EC2 CU), I successfully got 500K concurrent connections, I'm quite happy with this half million result. At this payload, the system is still very good responsive, only memory usage is little high, at 12.xG used, left about 2.xG free. CPU usage is quite low, and related to real business logic. Right now, I'm using 10 cppcms based processes, and listen on different ports. I shall take a look at how to use same port number next, the prefolk method mentioned previously by Artyom. Cheers, William L.
