UNIX socket connection to upstream server

Open krizhanovsky opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

While Apache HTTPD doesn't support UNIX sockets for listen configuration option, Nginx does. UNIX domain sockets are much faster for local delivery than full TCP stack sockets. So Tempesta should prefer to connect local upstream via UNIX socket.

Also additional research is required here, to discover impact of RPS/RFS on Tempesta FW performance in case of loopback interface. Inspired by https://github.com/tempesta-tech/tempesta/issues/1073#issuecomment-430554859 and https://github.com/tempesta-tech/tempesta/issues/1073#issuecomment-430582703.

Hi @osevan ,

the feature is scheduled for a relatively far milestone, but we have sponsorship tiers to push existing or new issues for high priority development. Please check our donations page https://github.com/sponsors/tempesta-tech
