[jetty-dev] Unix Sockets for Jetty

[Greg Wilkins <gregw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I've created a branch of jetty which has a unix socket connector in it.   This allows fast connections from a local native connection terminator (eg haproxy or nginx) that will hand off without data copies and/or significant dispatch delays.

The main use-case intended for this is simply offloading SSL/TLS, but I'm sure there are many other innovative uses.

The branch is https://github.com/eclipse/jetty.project/tree/unix-socket  and I'd be really keen to hear from anybody interested in using it, or better yet who want to test it out.

cheers
