About:
Raining Sockets is a high-performance, non-blocking, sockets-based framework. Non-blocking IO (NIO or NBIO) allows one to create thousands of connections in a single thread, thus making applications highly scalable, compared to the thread-per-client model used prior to JDK 1.4. A user only needs to override the event that needs to be customized, such as what to do with arrived (or arriving) data, or what to do when a write has completed. Raining Sockets has been tested successfully with over 13,000 concurrent connections.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
This release features pipelining (multiple GET requests on one connection) and persistent connections on the NIO framework, as per RFC 2616.
