Dan Kegel's classic site "[http://www.kegel.com/c10k.html The C10K Problem]" (still updated from time to time) put a Promethean order to the arcana of years, with Jeff Darcy's "[http://pl.atyp.us/content/tech/servers.html High-Performance Server Architecture]" adding to our understanding. I'm collecting here some followup material to these excellent works (and of course the books of W. Richard Stevens, whose torch we merely carry).

Varghese's ''[http://www.amazon.com/Network-Algorithmics-Interdisciplinary-Designing-Networking/dp/0120884771 Network Algorithmics: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Designing Fast Networked Devices]'' is in a league of its own in this regard.
