Unix Domain Sockets

Open yfeldblum opened this issue 14 years ago • 0 comments

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!
