I have a 2 programs that are communicating via sockets on the same computer. Currently 1.6 million bytes is taking about 7 seconds to transfer using TCP/IP. I need to make it fast.
If I use a raw socket instead, and ignore the TCP/IP headers, then this should increase the speed? Is there anything else I can do to increase speed? Is the SOCKET_RAW option a straight copy or does it do anything else?
