Everyone ought start with Dan Kegel's classic site, "The C10K Problem" (still updated from time to time). Jeff Darcy's "High-Performance Server Architecture" is much of the same. Everything here is advanced followup material to these excellent works, and of course the books of W. Richard Stevens.
- "sendfile(): fairly sexy (nothing to do with ECN)" on lkml
- "mmap() sendfile()" on freebsd-hackers
- "sharing memory map between processes (same parent)" on comp.unix.programmer
- "some mmap observations compared to Linux 2.6/OpenBSD" on freebsd-hackers
- Stuart Cheshire's "Laws of Networkdynamics" and "It's the Latency, Stupid"
Queueing Theory
- "Introduction to Queueing"
- Leonard Kleinrock's peerless two-volume Queueing Systems
