Started writing a new article

Over the past few weeks I've been developing a scalable, high load*, TCP server from scratch** in C# The reason for doing this is the simple one I've built using this series of articles[^] started to crumble in my software's beta tests. Why is clear to me now but two years ago I was fresh out of college and quite naive. I couldn't find any good reading material on this topic which totally sucked. One of the main things I had to learn the hard way was to collect raw data in one thread and process it in another. Someone the the forums almost kinda cryptically mentioned it to me. I also spent countless hours reading up on the ins and outs of threading. The bit of threading I've needed to do so up until this project was so simple that I never need to learn more about it. Alot of blood, sweat and tears went into this program but I can say I've learnt ALOT of new things on ALOT of different topics so it was definitely worth it! Now I've decided to share my new found wisdom with my fellow CPians, wish me luck :) * This is probably relative cause its a C# app and not a C++ one ** Almost from scratch, I'm using Ami Bar's Smart Thread Pool[^] which r0ck's by the way

I wrote a tcp client/server as my very first .NET project. I'd never written any networking code and I'm pretty sure I would tackle it very differently now. I look forward to reading your article.

Extra man points if you do direct IO Completion port programming, instead of using .Net's implementation!

Do I lose man points if my first thought after reading your post was about gender bias and how tough, challenging problems in programming are seen as manly to accomplish thus making all females who attempt such as butch? And do I gain man points if my reason for the concern was the lack of hotties in computer science?

I think it's possible you lose man points for taking things too seriously.
