CouchDB & WebSocket

[Martin Hewitt <ma...@thenoi.se>]

Hi all,

We do a lot of work with WebSockets, internally and externally, and have found the solidifying drafts to be very good at increasing REST throughput, whilst avoiding the overhead of spinning up a new HTTP connection for each request.

I was wondering if there are any plans to add WebSocket support to CouchDB? Or is this dependent on MochiWeb?

yeah, we are basically waiting for MochiWeb to adopt it :)

For development related questions, the dev@ mailing list is usually better, for next time :)
