Random Musings of an Insane Mind

While working on a project, I started doing some benchmarking, but, benchmarks != real world.

So, I created a quick test, 50k.cd34.com, and, if you can, hit the url, send it to your friends and lets see if we can hit 50000 simultaneous connections. There is a counter that updates, and, the background color changes from black to white as it gets closer to 50000 viewers.

Code available on code.google.com.

I’ll probably be fixing IPv6 with socket.io soon. I was rather dismayed that it didn’t work.
