Greg Wilkins have an interesting article about Scaling Connections for AJAX with Jetty 6, in his post Greg explained the connection process and how it should be scaled to support thousand of connections. To talk about scaling connections greg talked about Operating Systems & Connections, Connection Buffers and how the solutions found for buffers.
Jetty 6 employs a number of innovative strategies to ensure that only the resources that are actually required are assigned to a connection and only for the duration of they are needed. This careful resource management gives Jetty an architecture designed to scale to meet the needs of AJAX applications.
I find it really excellent post, which talk about the solutions found to scale AJAX for high traffic applications. There is also some interesting recommandations that I really suggest to read.
