Revision 1.9 - roper - November 07, 2003 at 18:50:08
Branches: TRUNK
Diff to: 1.8

Keep-alive actually works now.  Major request parsing cleanup.

Revision 1.8 - roper - October 28, 2003 at 17:33:23
Branches: TRUNK

Lots of changes:
 * Use either buffering code taken from Apache or TCP_CORK to minimize
   network traffic.
 * Sockets are now properly 'half-closed' before being truly closed
 * Make 503 responses a compile time option
 * Make HTTP PUT a compile time option
 * Added -b command line switch to change server's accept backlog
 * Lots of code cleanup
 * More statistics kept for verbose (-v) output

Revision 1.7 - roper - October 07, 2003 at 16:27:29
Branches: TRUNK

TCP_CORK used by default if available; can be disabled by autoconf.

Revision 1.6 - roper - September 22, 2003 at 23:52:56
Branches: TRUNK

- pth_writev() is used to combine headers with body instead of issuing
  multiple pth_write()'s; this should be faster because it results in
  fewer internal copies of the data
- filename(s) of index files can be set in cow.conf now
- added ability to limit response concurrency

Revision 1.5 - roper - August 28, 2003 at 22:39:07
Branches: TRUNK

 * can now build against libdmalloc
 * CoW can background itself (and does so by default)
 * fixed minor connection counting bug

Revision 1.4 - roper - August 15, 2003 at 22:54:40
Branches: TRUNK

Popular mime types now bubble up to the top of the list, making mime lookup
less expensive as time goes on.

Revision 1.3 - roper - August 15, 2003 at 17:53:37
Branches: TRUNK

- fixed critical bug that caused only the first part (probably about 256K)
  of a file to actually be returned to the user
- CoW was using a pool of pmsg structures for communication between the
  main thread and the depot, but was malloc'ing messages sent from the
  depot to the handlers; messages are now forwarded to handlers instead of
  copied so we avoid the malloc overhead
- CoW now re-uses server socket so we don't have to wait a couple minutes
  after shutdown before restarting (avoids "Address in use" messages)

Revision 1.2 - roper - August 08, 2003 at 22:45:19
Branches: TRUNK

- added config option to disable TCP Nagle algorithm
- made request.c more lenient in terms of input; also heavily
  cleaned up/commented code

Revision 1.1 - roper - July 27, 2003 at 03:27:09
Branches: TRUNK

Actual 0.4.0 release
 - incorporate automake build system
 - better config file support
 - a stripped down, patched Pth is included
 - CoW looks for config file in /etc/cow.conf and /usr/local/etc/cow.conf
   now also
