Hi Joshua,

I'm a big fan Event... mainly because it works with great stability on
both Win32 & Linux. There's only one thing bugging me... On Linux then
Event can handle into the high hundreds of sockets before things start
to get too slow. However, on Win32 there seems to be a limitation of
64 sockets... which I'm guessing is because of the Win32 API call
being used. Do you know a work around for this? If not then is there
any chance of you implementing Win32 IOCP into Event? I've been in
contact with this guy in the UK who has written a library for this but
only for IOCP socket handling:
http://summerblue.net/computing/libiocp/index.html
I was always hoping that he might build it into libevent (which also
suffers from the 64 handle limit problem on Win32). Unfortunately he's
not used to the Linux world and got "frightened" after looking at the
libevent sources. Anyway, is there any chance of building his library
directly into Event?

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Simon Hardy-Francis
