Hello
Im working on a huge server on windows and im not sure what approach for multiclients should I use.. I know multithreading is not good, so I've been using non-blocking sockets until now (1 thread), which has limitation but this can be easily changed..
I wondered what do you guys think about IOCP framework on windows? It runs more threads to handle all connections, not one for each.. Is it better than select() method using nonblocking sockets? If not, why so?
Thanks for answers

Well for that much of requests, I think I/O Completion Ports should be the best method to use.
