Please add this to the testimonials:
<a href='www.eurid.eu'>EURid</a> used MINA during the landrush for .eu
domain names on the 7th of april 2006.
More than 700.000 domain names were registered during the first 4 hours.
After one hour MINA had handled more than 0.5 million SSL connections.
We found the speed and stability of MINA to be excellent.
And although we are still using MINA 0.8.1, we found the API very
elegant and easy.
Thanks to the MINA team and everyone involved in the project.

I forgot to say thank you to Maarten, too! Thank you for using MINA and for
providing great feedback! Let's keep MINA best!
Cheers,
Trustin

That's right, EPP over TCP is meant to support multiple commands per
connection.
First command should be <login>, last command should be <logout>
But to give all registrars a fair chance we decided to close the connection
after every <domain:create> command. And we only allowed one simultaneous
SSL connection per registrar.
Furthermore, to avoid a kind of denial-of-service attack, every
registrar was only allowed to send one SYN packet per second
(otherwise penalty time) per IP address
and only 5 IP addresses were allowed per registrar.
From our log-file:
2006-04-07 11:00:02,152 INFO EppHandler -
sessions since startup: 100 current: 89
2006-04-07 12:02:16,105 INFO EppHandler -
sessions since startup: 500000 current: 1581
2006-04-07 13:00:36,289 INFO EppHandler -
sessions since startup: 937500 current: 839
So it actually took 62 minutes to reach 0.5 million SSL connections :-)
but like I said, MINA certainly was not the bottleneck.
And without the rate-limit on SYN packets we would have had a lot more
connections.
Kind regards,
Maarten

EPP looks like it can exchange multiple requests and responses per
connection. Did I understand correctly? If so, do you mean that
0.5million connections are made and closed within one hour? Could you
clarify
this? It will be really impressive! :D

We didn't use https for the registrations but (something very similar to) EPP
It is basically an XML request/response protocol over SSL.
http://www.rfc-archive.org/getrfc.php?rfc=3734
http://www.rfc-archive.org/getrfc.php?rfc=3730
MINA certainly was not the bottleneck (the database was).
Our web-based whois (http://www.whois.eu) running on Tomcat had more
trouble with the load.
But it probably got more hits as well, I haven't got the numbers right now.
Kind regards,
Maarten

Do you know if it's possible to use asyncweb as a http-proxy ?

There's a MINA-based HTTP server over at http://

Impressive! Were you handling the front-end HTTP(S) requests using
MINA, or using it behind the web servers for an application-level
protocol?
If the former, is there any chance you could release your HTTP code? ;)
