Jumpy behaviour of unix sockets

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.

I have an application that writes 16k data buffers on a unix socket and
another one that reads them. I would like to keep the buffer filled up
so that the read never would fail but the unix socket layer with default
configuration thinks that if the buffer is more than 25% full then there
is no reason to ask the write end for more packets, but there is a reason
to block all writes.

I would like to know if there is some reason that this parameter is'n 
available for tweaking on the socket level and also why unix sockets
are to use 25% when it seems that all other network interfaces use 50%.
