Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] bitcoind multiplexing proxy - request/response routing problem
Date: Thu, 08 Sep 2011 18:15:50 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E6879B6.7090203@gmail.com> (raw)
4a/ Serialize all request/response exchanges. i.e. request comes in
from remote node, proxy aquires lock on the proxy-localdaemon channel
and sends request. Channel remains locked until response is received or
timeout (in which case remote node gets no response). Unlock channel
after response received and send to client.
Possibly messages that don't expect a response (e.g. relaying a tx
broadcast from remote node) can be pushed down a locked channel to
improve performance as they won't interfere with sequencing. Locked
channels may also receive other unsolicited messages from local daemon
before the expected response message which would be dealt with the same
as if they came from an unlocked channel.
Disadvantages: Idle time for channel while waiting for response. As
per option 2 this allows the proxy to stay dumb/thin but loses
opportunity for de-duplicating/caching unless option 1 is layered on top.
4b/ As per 4a but use all 125 available bitcoind connections in a
channel pool. Acquiring a lock on a channel consists of checking for an
unlocked channel first then waiting in a queue for one to become available.
