This is interesting, how does it compare to using nginx(or another proxy) in front of multiple socket.io instances on the same machine?



I wrote SocketCluster. I haven't tried that yet, it would definitely be interesting to test.


I'd be interested in seeing how difficult it would be to modify this to use multiple communication servers (redis, cassandra, etc) so that it can be scaled across multiple instances.

Would also be interested in seeing how many connections it could handle doing say 5-10 messages per second.
