Hello all,

I've been thinking about implementing capping of sockets but I've
completely no idea how to do it. I'm receiving signals every time there
is data to be read and when I have data to write and the socket can
accept data. Is the only solution using a timer? What about the
resolution of the timer? Also I'm thinking that the bigger the
resolution of the timer the more CPU will be used so it won't be an
efficient solution.

Regards

What do you mean by "capping" of sockets? Are you talking about
rate-limiting? If so, are you talking about TCP, UDP, both, or
something else?
