FastChannel is a high-speed packet processing library that scales across multiple CPU cores to distribute traffic loads efficiently. Today it delivers up to 10Gbps of packet processing, with scalability to 20Gbps planned for 2008. FastChannel is lock-free, meaning the multiple processing units can all operate simultaneously without having to wait for each other, providing linear scalability on multi-core platforms.
