Hi all! Im making some performance enhancement on PhaROS, i realised that one of my common scenarios is having several sockets that should receive exactly the same information, in order to do that, im using n calls to the vm, which does n system-calls.

I was wondering if there something done in:

- send the same data to all the sockets in just one primitive

- send the same data to all the sockets in just one syscall.�

I checked around in google but i didn't found anything useful, but probably i have no knowledge about the proper words for such search :).

Thanks!�
