Is there a better method (using Windows) for getting a moderate amount of data from many clients quickly without using select (but I am willing to use select if need be). IOCP is no good to me and ippoll is for Linux. This has to be compatible with OpenSSL because I am running TLS. for some reason BIO objects don’t work on my machine (Windows 7) they just don’t. So, I piggy-backed the encryption onto winsock connections (that worked). Your responce is appreciated.
There’s no reason why select() would be significantly quicker, or slower, than any other method, including blocking-mode I/O, async I/O, etc, unless you are handling very large numbers of connections. You can’t get any data until it arrives and has been decrypted. Possibly your problem is at the sending end?
