riquisimo<p>So I'm curious. How many of you out there manage your own files for music vs use a streaming service?</p><p>If you stream your own files to your phone, that would count as the first option since you own the files.</p><p>If you use a streaming service, either free or paid, that's the second option.

Felix Palmen :freebsd: :c64:

First change since #swad 0.2 will actually be a (huge?) improvement to my #poser lib. So far, it was hardwired to use the good old #POSIX #select call. This is perfectly fine for handling around up to 100 (or at least less than 1000, YMMV) clients.

Some #select implementations offer defining the upper limit for checked file descriptors. Added support for that.

POSIX also specifies #poll, which has very similar #scalability issues, but slightly different. Added support for this as well.

And then, I went on to add support for the #Linux-specific #epoll and #BSD-specific #kqueue (#FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD, ...) which are both designed to *solve* any scalability issues 🥳

A little thing that slightly annoyed me about kqueue was that there's no support for temporarily changing the signal mask, so I had to do the silly dance shown in the screenshot. OTOH, it offers changing event filters and getting events in a single call, which I might try to even further optimize ... 😎

kqueue client code, manually relaxing the signal mask for just the single kevent() call waiting for new events.
