MegaComet testing part 2
I've been busy testing megacomet on an EC2 micro instance. Keep in mind this testing is pretty crummy, given the instance only has 600M memory and i'm running the fake-client-flooding app on the same box as the server. Anyway, i was able to get up to 50k connections open before things started getting slow. I'm not sure if i hit a configuration limit, or a memory limit, or what. Testing continues...
Anyway, here's the 'top' results, showing that 50k connections roughly means 16M memory usage:

And here's where i got the kernel tuning tips from:
