MultiThread Socket on NT

[Werner Schiendl]

Hi,

did you notice, that the SocketServer module contains a ready-made socket
server?
It even includes a threaded server (2 in fact, ThreadingTCPServer and
ThreadingUDPServer).

Your problem with performance could come from creating a new thread for
every request.
Depending on the OS, creating threads may be an expensive operation.
(e. g. Windows calls the DllMain() function in all loaded DLLs, unless they
explicitely specified they do not want this)

To have a better scalable solution, you could use a thread pool.
