[jira] Commented: (DIRMINA-66) Does your StreamIoHandler works better than java.io?

Trustin Lee commented on DIRMINA-66:
------------------------------------

Hey Rick,

* Reusable CODECs

It means that you can implement your own codec and reuse it for later use if it is reusable enough.  For example, let's assume you've created a generic object streaming protocol codec, then you'll be able to reuse it again and again later.

* StreamIoHandler

First of all, it uses NIO and therefore it is more scalble.  And it does asynchronous I/O.  So there is performance gain when your business logic is blocked by other factor than network I/O (e.g. Disk I/O, database access...)  There's a known performance benchmark that beats Tomcat using this technique:  http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-nioserver/ 

Thanks,
Trustin

> Hey, trustin, this is rick.
> Arreo is about to change the underlying networking library to MINA soon. (I strongly insisted, he he. cuz they were trying to build new one -_-)
> Anyway, I was thinking using MINA for all the server applications I made, yet I found out that it does not provide any good stuffs you promised to provide in MINA. No reusable codecs, no what so ever, but just plain old java.io like feature.
> Heck, I read the document regarding StreamIoHandler, but no clue why should it be better than using java.io.
> I don't even need a factual proof. But just wanna hear that MINA is somehow better than java.io from you. he he. ;-)
> Anyway. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, ya doing!
> I wish you the best, brother.
