Hi Samuel, I know I shouldn't be asking this question here, I hope you don't mind. I notice that if you use the stream read and write functions in GNAT.Sockets on a socket that uses non-blocking I/O, then typically the processor goes into a busy loop (99% of CPU). The reason is that the implementation just keeps looping around trying to send (receive) any remaining bytes, and if the socket is full (empty) then it sends (receives) zero bytes, causing it to immediately loop around again... Is there any good reason for this implementation? Shouldn't it be using select? Thanks, Duncan. _______________________________________________ AdaSockets mailing list [email protected] http://www.rfc1149.net/mailman/listinfo/adasockets
