Unix Domain Sockets
Feature Suggestion:
The server listens on, and the client can connect to the server over, a Unix domain socket (a socket file). This would be an option; TCP sockets would remain the default mechanism since they are universal.
DRuby supports Unix domain sockets via the DRb::DRbUNIXSocket class (http://www.ruby-doc.org/ruby-1.9/classes/DRb.html).
This should make Akephalos ever-so-slightly faster.
Cheers!
