Project highlights:

• Terminal velocity
  • Delivers content as fast as the disk can read it
  • Get the maximum out of the network
  • Low latency streaming
• Written in C++
• Multithreaded design
  • Supports hundreds of simultaneous connections
  • Double buffering ensures the most efficient content delivery
    • Each connection is served by two dedicated threads
    • Read and send data at the same time
• Optimized caching scheme based on content type and size
  • Small files are cached
  • Streaming and range requests are optimized for random access
  • Large files use unbuffered IO
    • Faster access at lower CPU usage
    • Does not polute the cache
    • Synchronized read queue to avoid disk thrashing
• Supports directory listing with image viewer and audio/video playback
• Dedicated memory buffers for each connection
  • No runtime allocation, buffers are always ready to use
