[naviserver-devel] Naviserver support for TCP_FASTOPEN

[Gustaf N. <ne...@wu...>]

Dear all,

the tip version of NaviServer supports now TCP_FASTOPEN (sometimes 
called TFO).

The Linux kernel server-support for TFO was introduced by Linux 3.7.0 
(used e.g. in FC 18, available since a few days). TFO could result in 
speed improvements of between 4% and 41% for page load times (see [1]). 
To use TFO in NaviServer, it has to be configured/compiled/executed on a 
machine with a Linux Kernel that supports it, and "deferaccept" has to 
be turned on.
