Re: [mosquitto-dev] Mosquitto on Parallella.

Hi Andrew

This is an interesting idea and can see that using the parallella board can yield powerful "hub" between zigbee units, relying message between them and pub maybe even to the cloud - so this board can be a nice mqtt host 

wonder if the linux kernel can be tweaked to include PF_RING as part of the code - allowing the network packets to go directly to mosquitto - the network driver with PF_Ring + Mosquitto + Parallella may be small but those combination can be even more power to the people :)

All depends what the purpose will be for using MQTT+Mosquitto+Parallella board for 

last input from we would be to cluster the boards :)

Interesting to see what how this turns out

Hello,

Firstly, by way of an introduction, I'm community manager for the
Parallella project [1].

Earlier this year at FOSDEM I met with Mike Millinkovich and we
briefly discussed the idea of running mosquitto on the Parallella
computer. Since then a demo was put together [2], but just making use
of the ARM host and not Parallella's 16-core floating-point
accelerator.

So, I wondered if anyone might be able to comment on whether mosquitto
and Parallella could be a good match, using the Epiphany chip to
offload certain operations. The hope being that given the
Parallella/Epiphany architecture [3] and that mosquitto brokers many
small messages, the combination of the two may be able to yield some
interesting performance figures.

Thoughts?

Regards,

Andrew
