I have created a 14MB file and the results were:
On Linux: 4 seconds
On Cygwin: 44 Seconds
The test were made on 3 different platforms, and the results the same.
Cygwin is not just 2X slower but 11X slower, each is too much.
Another thing, what have the pipe and the file redirection to do with
the results?
That command is given always on a Unix box which is the client of the
echo_server.
Is just the echo_server that runs on Cygwin or Linux. ;)
I think is clear that there is a performance issue in the select()
function that deserves attention.
Thanks,
