Hi,
I started to use boost::asio some time ago and want to use it for a windows commercial product that does web filtering and handles thousands of connections concurrently (proxy based product)
I am wandering if anybody had experience using it at such a large scale, where besides handling many connections you have to handle inside a connection communication with databases, things that potentially incur delaying handling of subsequent requests. What kind of configuration would you advise in such a case (multiple I/O services per n threads, on IO service that handles all incoming connections and a thread pool that handles processing of async handlers - how one would assure in this case a connections is handled in the same thread then ..etc)
Thanks for any input
