Hello, all!

Let me introduce my article about using epoll() on Linux.

General way to implement tcp servers is "one thread/process per
connection". But on high loads this approach can be not so efficient and
we need to use another patterns of connection handling. In this article
I will describe how to implement tcp-server with synchronous connections
handling using epoll() system call of Linux 2.6. kernel.
