Ditto, I haven't seen any benchmarks on such things in a *long* time
[ since magazines like "Sys-Admin Journal" and Workstation" went
belly-up; there isn't much of a centralized placed for such things
anymore].
But I +1 the experience. The POSIX IPC mechanisms tend to be extremely
high-performance (although not necessarily the applications built around
them).
Is there a good benchmark tool for Linux IPC?
