The double hijack trick, serving 65k connections from a single ruby process
# This server demo does a socket hijack in Rack and then saves the socket to a global variable
# to prevent it from being GCed when the Puma thread ends. It will then write "BEEP" to each
# socket every ten seconds to prevent the connection timing out. During testing, it easily
# handled up to 65523 connections, after which it ran into the `ulimit` for open file descriptors.
# The bit with the waiting area is there because a normal `Set` is not thread safe and it would
# drop socket due to race conditions. The `Queue` is thread safe and will make sure all sockets
# are preserved.
# run with `rackup -q -p 8000 -o 0.0.0.0 c10k.ru`
# testing: install `ab` and then run `ab -c 20000 -n 20000 <ip adress of server>:8000/
