tcpserver

My connection handler is below (this is more for personal experimentation than production code) If I don't add a Thread.Sleep anywhere in the while loop, it starts sucking down CPU.. Conversely, if I do Sleep to alleviate the endless while-spam, I miss the disconnection.. The CPU goes up in direct proportion to the number of clients/threads running, so it's not the listener itself that's causing the high usage, it's the actual client thread posted below.. Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this? (I'm avoiding await-based solutions as I'm not familiar enough with async/await and the threaded

I am using C++ TCP/IP sockets. According to my requirements my client has to connect to a server and read the messages sent by it (that's something really new, isn't it) but... in my application I have to wait for some time (typically 1 - 2 hrs) before I actually start reading messages (through recv() or read()) and the server still keeps on sending messages. I want to know whether there is a limit on the capacity of the buffer which keeps those messages in case they are not read and whose physical memory is used to buffer those messages? Sender's or receiver's? user207421 TCP data is buffered

I'm working on a project which involves sending data over TCP. Using the ThreadedTCPServer I'm able to do that already. The server thread only needs to read incoming strings of data and set the value of variables. Meanwhile I need the main thread to see those variables changing value. Here's my code so far, just modified from the ThreadedTCPServer example: import socket import threading import SocketServer x =0 class ThreadedTCPRequestHandler(SocketServer.BaseRequestHandler): def handle(self): data = self.request.recv(1024) # a few lines of code in order to decipher the string of data incoming
