Im running openfire server with clients that connected only via http binding, im suffering heavy delays on when users reach 250-300 on server, im not using any connection managers as well…
I wander if someone can provide me information about Openfire Http binding capabilities, such as maximum users it can handle and any relative information.
The http-bind service in Openfire is using the Jetty web server. I think you should modify the parameters for the long polling. It might improve performance. Otherwise try moving to websockets. It works on all browsers and gives better performance. No more HTTP polling.
Can you expand on your statement " I think you should modify the parameters for the long polling. It might improve performance. " I dont understand
Is websockets available in 3.7.1? The client I have build is based on strophe, and I think there may be a websockets component built for that but I don’t want to pursue that right now if its not in 3.7.1
Websockets plugin only works with Openfire 3.7.2 because it needs jetty 7.5. You can patch your Openfire 3.7.1 with Jetty 7.5. You only replace the openfire.jar file
