Typical issue in the EJB world : Remote Beans / Local Beans , though on inter process it was remote beans with its full stack RMI marshalling / unmarshalling.

But can we not exploit shared memory and efficient Event mechanism to make the two process coordinate, that should be lot more efficient than TCP - IP / but if that performance suffices it would be fine..

Hi,
I played a bit with ZnServer and other zinc components and have
a question I can't answer myself (googling a bit didn't help neither),
and I'm seeking for advice: does it makes sense to use a ZnServer/ZnWebSocket
as a mechanism to transfer data between two pharo processes - in my case 8k ByteArray blocks ?
Or is it a total non sense ? is it reliable ?
First tests looks good : 18k blocks / second (145 Mb/s) on a laptop
��core i5 2.6Ghz.

All comments and suggestions welcome

Thanks in advance,

Alain
