IOCP is unstable, and the code verrigan provided isn't fully bug free. And IOCP is supposed to be used on a server with thousands of connections, a ms server is better without it. So just skip it. |

I've had IOCP in my code for over a year and have never had any sort of hang ups with it. granted, I've not had more then 10 people online at a time, but unless I'm missing something there doesn't seem to be a problem. |

I took IOCP out of a game because it kept getting out of memory errors and players were always having account online problems and so on. The game has about 20 people on average. |

There are problems with it and GIAKEN has noticed 1 of the problems, people stay logged in. I don't use IOCP anymore and I'm just stating my opinion that it's a bad idea to use it. The game is much more stable without it. |

The game is much more stable without it. Oh okay, but what about disabling the nagle algorithm and using packet buffering? |

Sure you can do that, but you won't gain anything on it. The code he is providing is more like a base packet buffer. I wouldn't use it, nagling is fine. |
