[mapguide-internals] MapGuide RFC 65 - ACE 5.6 upgrade is ready for review

[Jason Birch]

That would be nice.  

Although the recent http connection fixes seem to have worked around the problems fairly well and reduced the number of hard failures for end users, I've noticed that in some cases a user's performance degrades considerably (hangs for N seconds) while waiting for connections that are inactive but still open to be closed properly.

It's also my understanding (from previous conversations) that some newer hardware can actually handle more than 62 connections worth of work, and that the current limitation would be artificially constraining the performance of these boxes.

As part of the upgrade we may want to switch ACE on Windows to use either ACE_TP_Reactor or ACE_Select_Reactor instead of the ACE_WFMO_Reactor.  The WFMO reactor can only handle 62 concurrent connections whereas the TP and Select reactors can handle 1024 connections.
